This is a first- NOW if Idaho would start convicting wolf killers We would have something!
A young man from Newdale, Idaho (Kenneth Sommer) was hunting black bear in May. His wife was along on this trip to the Rock Creek area near the Cave Falls road. He shot a big male grizzly (illegal) and claimed it was about to attack his wife, a defense we have heard often. The bear was one that had never gotten into any human trouble.
