Although I earlier posted a lot of material about the USFWS proposed changes to the 10j rule on the “non-essential, experimental” population of wolves in Idaho, Wyoming, and much of Montana, a month ago, I’ve been asked to post again now that the due date approaches — August 6.

Video of the recent Boise wolf hearing on the WWP blog. Look who’s going to be running the show for wolves in Idaho. Note: “management flexibility” means kill wolves without restriction.
