ID Wolf Population Density
Elk
I have recently (August) moved to Idaho from Indiana. I had a Montana Archery Elk tag from before i knew i was moving to Idaho and have made the drive from Boise to Bozeman every weekend from Labor Day (scouting) to the end of September except for when I spent 9 days hunting with my buddy and covered two weekends.
After a couple close calls, I think i am done doing that drive for elk this year but I still want to keep hunting something but I have to wait 6 months for residency in Idaho so Elk/deer are pretty much off limits after all the gas i burned going to montana. The cheapest tag for non-residents is a Wolf tag so I am going to buy one of those and get after it. I know people don't give away their spots but i was curious if anyone has seen areas here in Idaho with higher densities of wolves where a guy could actually have a shot at pulling the trigger on one? I've heard that the area around Stanley is an original release site but does anyone have any real world sighting/experience to back this up?
Much appreciated for a guy looking to earn his elk tag for next year...
A year old ... But try this- northwestwolfsightings.org
Try putting this on the ID state forum too
Call the ID wildlife Biologists and Game Wardens with your questions.
I think most would be more than willing to give you their 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th and so on favorite wolf "spots" ………..
Sounds like your "crying wolf" here brother!
Dwarshak Unit 10A , Headquarters.Pierce, The last time I hunted for elk in these areas..I could have taken wolf with a bow. Never seen any elk however.
I wish I could help ya. I encourage everyone who's capable to do their part in thinning the wolves down. The deer and elk will thank you for it.....
Found this on Idaho Fish and Game website.
Guys, much thanks for these tips! I'm getting pumped to get after these things! Ya'll rock. BTW Idaho has been awesome!
