Utah's Wolf Management Plan

[UTmonsterslayer]

Just read this on the DWR website - from page 35 of their Wolf Management Plan, which can be found here:

http://wildlife.utah.gov/wolf/wolf_management_plan.pdf

Management Objectives
1. Allow wolves to disperse into Utah, and be conserved, except when or where:
? Wolves conflict with the wildlife management objectives of the Ute Indian
Tribe;
? Wolves cause unacceptable livestock depredation; or
? Wolves contribute to wildlife populations not meeting management
objectives as defined by the Utah Wildlife Board?s Predator Management
Policy

The part about allowing them to disperse has me worried.

You Won't/Don't need a Tag!

This is one State the Big Bad Wolf and the Wolf Lovers won't last!

I don't know 3 Hunters in the State that won't shoot(Wolves!) on Sight!

And they/We don't/Won't care what kind of Laws are in Effect saying you can't Shoot them!

"""Damn,I thought that was a Big Coyote!"""

Should We call somebody & let them know Wolf # 179 is not doing Well?


This Story happens alot it's True!
But Ya Best Hope it don't ever happen to you!

The DWR is delusional. Once established you will not be able to shoot them fast enough to keep em under control. Trapping will help but when you have to remove 60% per year to maintain a particular level, you need poison... good luck with that.
