OLYMPIA, Wash. (AP) –€” After fatally shooting two wolves, state wildlife officials have ended operations to remove other members of the pack in northeastern Washington.

The Department of Fish and Wildlife said Thursday it will resume killing wolves if there are new attacks on livestock.

State officials in helicopters shot and killed two adult female wolves on Aug. 5 after confirming several livestock attacks by the wolves this year.

During the two-week operation, officials tracked wolves in Ferry County by air and on the ground using GPS signals. The wolves eventually retreated into thick forest of the Kettle River Range.

The department’s Donny Martorello says there have been no new livestock attacks since the agency authorized the wolf killings on Aug. 3.

This is the third time the state has killed wolves since the apex predators began recolonizing Washington on their own a decade ago.

  1. well as that is nice that they are stopping the killings…for now…they should not kill any more wolves when and if the cattle are targeted by the wolves…sooner or later the cattle ranchers and the trophy hunters should realize that totally wiping out all the wolves…will not necessarily stop any other mammal from wiping out the cattle…so look at plan B…without the wolves around anymore…someday…and your cattle are being taken down in numbers…who care you going to blame then? and believe me…this could be something that may just happen…
