Perhaps they all moved over to Unit 17 in the Selway wilderness.
We certainly have an abundance of them there as well as in area 250 on the West Fork of the Bitterroot in Montana.
We are really looking forward to the "wolf management" opportunity that the states of Idaho and Montana have allowed us this year.
In Idaho a trapper can take 3 and a hunter can shoot two so we anticipate a good season as we endeavor, with some enthusiasm, to restore some balance to the area.
During the winter months, as the snow moves the game and the predators out of the high country, we expect to have a good season as we use traditional trapping techniques and some long range hunting opportunities to reduce their numbers a bit.
If you are interested in participating in our winter hunts let me know.
Also, lets find out what works to take them. If you have any luck with predator calls or other techniques make a post.
thanks!! and good luck.
