"In Idaho, wolf packs ranged from the Canadian border south to Interstate Highway 84, and from the Oregon border east to the Montana and Wyoming borders. Dispersing wolves were occasionally reported in previously unoccupied areas."
Note that I-84 goes from Pocatello through Twin Falls to Boise.
Blackfoot must then be in the "east to the Montana and Wyoming borders."
wolves were reported, though classified a feral dogs by the authorities, north of Menan Idaho. I suppose they were hangin' close to the refuge. Plenty of white tails and elk.
A pair of wolves, presumably a breeding pair were reported by local ranchers, with tracks verified by yours truly in 2006/7 2 miles east of Blackfoot Idaho.
It was noted in the fall of 2007 that even with heavier than normal snow fall in the hills, the regularly scheduled appearance of a local ~50 head elk herd did not appear along the Blackfoot River, the northern border of the Fort Hall Indian Reservation.
