There are only two breeding packs in Oregon, one of them has been implicated in 5 incidents of livestock predation, two wolves are slated to be killed.

Too bad, but it could also show Oregonians that problem wolves will be dealt with.
This pair of wolves got 5 strikes, and the rest of the nearby wolves have caused no trouble at for livestock.
Kudos to this rancher for at least trying his best to prevent depredations. I just wish he would do the kill(s) instead of having WS have to come in and spend our tax money to do it.
I agree with that sentiment JW.
