Montana: Wolf Hunts Are Banned in Area Bordering Yellowstone

94. Actually it's a pile of PR bullshit

The reason the MTRFW$P made such a decision is that they got global bad press about it, period. What did they actually decide? That a couple acres around Gardiner would be off limits, now that the majority of the park wolves who would venture in that direction have already been killed off. There is NO provision for the 110 miles of park boundary along the western flank of the park in Gallatin County, MT.

And, apparently there's a "Wolves in the Rockies" page on FB, I don't do FB, that has the decision statement and the map of the paltry "no quota zone" that is oh so temporary. Nothing's banned or anything of true significance, really.

And Wyoming has no intention of doing the same... where most of the bastards who sit outside the park boundary and "call" the wolves out to kill them are exhibiting their brave hunting prowess. Idaho is it's own ugly fucking problem and food for yet another long rant.

It's a sham and it should be called out for being just that. It's all about getting better PR for the MTFW$P... nothing more.
