Lie Down With Wolves: Part Two
(2009-08-18)
(idaho) - Idaho's hunting season may reduce the number of wolves in the state by as much as twenty five percent, but removal from the endangered species list and a hunting season does not change the relationship between ranchers and wolves. Ranchers still can't shoot a wolf unless they catch it in the act of attacking their animals. That means there will still be many places in Idaho where livestock and wolves live in close proximity. Yesterday on Morning Edition Boise State Radio's Adam Cotterell brought you a report on a project that experiments with methods to keep wolves away from sheep using non-lethal means. Today in part two of that report Adam talks to the people who judge the success of the project, the ranchers. © Copyright 2012, idaho
