Speaking of Druids, Dan Hartman (wildlife photographer just outside the Yellowstone NE Entrance) is reporting that the pack is mangy and in bad shape. See http://wildlifealongtherockies.homestead.com/
Idaho hasn’t had any cases of mange so far as I know, but Montana, Wyoming, and now Yellowstone, have had plenty.
What is the Montana hunt’s procedure if you shoot a mangy wolf? Dealing with that carcass ought to be a lot of fun 🙁
