5. Wolves don't generally eat deer

Their impact on deer is far less than road kill. If you wanted to talk about elk, that would be a different story; over the last 15 years there has been a 20% reduction in the Idaho elk herds - from 103k to 125k. . Some would say that's a reduction down to a manageable number.

If you go out and don't find any animals to photograph, wolves aren't necessarily to blame. I work with some avid hunters, and every year hear an abundance of hunting stories. Most people who fill their tags are just happy and proud, most people who didn't fill their tags find something to blame, the last few years its either wolves or Obama (though neither frequent our region).
