I guess we will see. They should make it through this winter fine - we have been bare ground most of the winter up to about 6500 feet in Paradise Valley.

Maybe some wolves will starve to death with no snow to slow the elk down.

I heard a wolf on the very northern edge of 313 last weekend (the hunting area north of Yellowstone). That is really rugged country and I wouldn't be surprised if there were way more wolves than they know about, or acknowledge knowing about, north of the park.

Patrick were you hunting wolves, I'm thinking about going into Paradise to hunt em next weekend but with WMU 313 quota filled and with the WMA closed, I dont know where to start. I have a fairly good knowledge of the area but looking for some help, thanks!

Maybe the wolves could be slowed down with a lead projectile in the lungs.

I wasn't hunting I was just checking the ice thickness at Dailey lake. The wolf was solidly in 313 when I heard it.

If I had more info I would gladly fork it over. I haven't heard much about wolves this winter.

Either one works

Either one would work just fine for me to use.
