Here at Protect The Wolves, with Idahos record of proven lies and deceit we dont believe anything anymore that comes out of Idaho, especially when it comes to numbers….
The 2015 annual summary of wolf monitoring in Idaho is now available, and shows wolf numbers remain well above the 150 wolves and 15 breeding pairs required to keep gray wolves off the endangered species list under the 2009 de-listing rule.
Biologists documented 108 wolf packs in Idaho at the end of 2015. In addition, there were 20 documented packs counted by Montana, Wyoming, and Washington that had established territories overlapping the Idaho state boundary. Not all packs are presumed documented.
An estimated 786 wolves were associated with documented packs of wolves in Idaho at the end of 2015, similar to that for 2014, yet below that of the peak years of 2008 and 2009.
