[QUOTE="CubCouper, post: 2695437, member: 68185"] I've seen 3 wolves and got a shot off at one here on the NE side of the Wyo Bighorns. The past 3 seasons I've had more wolves answer elk bugles then elk. No tag necessary -- they are a predator here, same as a coyote, shoot on sight, year around, though there are some rules about reporting a harvest to the G&F. I know of two taken this fall by ranchers on the south end of the Bighorns near Kaycee (I grew up there). Wolves are tough to find but there are a lot of them around and they have definitely affected the elk patterns. We see at less elk and generally smaller herds in the traditional mountain area, and we're now seeing more elk herds down on hay meadows 15-25 miles from the mountains. I guess elk would rather be shot at for a few weeks a year than harassed by the predator population all year long. Fact is that the wolves will follow the herds and ranchers are seeing tracks down on the flats now. [/QUOTE]
