Secret Killing of the Wolves in Idaho

 Fish and Game Afraid of the Big Bad Wolf?

The good ole guys at Fish and Game strikes again and this time it is to protect the elk population from hungry wolves. It seems that the elk population has been declining since 1989 and wolves must be to blame.  No worries that it might be illegal poaching or change in habitat. 

So in February US DA Wildlife Services went on a secret helicopter wolf hunt, shooting down over 20 wolves. 

Oh and for safety concerns, it was deemed best to not notify the public due to safety concerns. 

I am pondering also about a humor going around with wild horse advocates that proposals are being drawn up to eradicate starving wild horses that have become too overpopulated and infringe on grazing cattle. 

Let's see, shoot all the predators and then when the prey become over populated we can just go out and shoot them too!
