Not a great time to be a wolf in many states in America. This is especially bad in the case of South Dakota, Montana and Idaho, where new laws and regulations are expected to reduce the number of wolves in those states. In South Dakota as of January 2021, hunters are allowed to throw gray wolves all year round, like quails. The state does not have a permanent population of these animals, so people who have died are usually unlucky to roam from other states.
The situation in the adjoining state of Montana is no more secure. In April, newly elected Governor Greg Gianfort passed legislation SB0314 that would reduce the wolf population from an estimated 800 to at least 1200 breeding zones. Gianfort was given a written warning after killing a yellowstone wolf roaming the state. Gianfort has not completed a state-ordered wolf trapping certificate course. The Aggressive Cooling Act was also passed in Idaho in May. S1211 noted that 90% of the Idaho wolf population would kill only 150 members out of 1,500.
One of the reasons for claiming the necessity of this law is the hunting of wolves on animals. According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, 130 cows and sheep in Idaho were confirmed or possibly killed by wolves between July and June last year. Idaho alone has 2 million cattle. According to nationwide statistics, predicted deaths among adult cattle were less than 2.5 percent of the total back in 2015, most of which were caused by quails, not wolves. In Idaho that year, about 40,000 animals went missing due to hunting. Wolf packs can find easy prey for prey: because wolf-tiger counter can also be effective in cattle
The Idaho Fish and Game Commission has opposed the law, which has liberalized trapping rules and increased funding to hire professional exterminators who can shoot wolves from helicopters. The money it covers comes from funds that were originally earmarked for the Fish and Games section. The reintroduction of wolves in Yellowstone National Park back in the 90s had a profound effect not only on the number of other animals, but also on the landscape. Wolf hunters begin to hunt elk whose numbers have doubled before. Herbalists began to avoid certain areas of the park that led to the recovery of willow, cottonwood and aspen trees.
