It's illegal to hunt and kill a wolf in Yellowstone National Park.
But it isn't illegal to lure a wolf across the park's invisible, man-made boundary with bait, or by playing recordings of howling wolves.
Two years ago, one in five of Yellowstone's wolves were killed when they unknowingly strayed into the wrong part of Montana. It was the worst hunting season on record for them.1
The #Montana Fish & Wildlife Commission has just proposed a plan to kill more #wolves right on #Yellowstone 's doorstep ... but that's just the tip of the iceberg. The state is trying to set a goal of killing hundreds of wolves across the state this winter.
After tens of thousands of wolf lovers spoke out Montana did start proposing somewhat lower goals than in past years, including around Yellowstone.
