Conservationists ask court to stop Idaho, Montana wolf huntsEnvironmentalist groups asked for an emergency injunction, arguing that hunts will cause irreparable harm to wolves, whose numbers will be dropped to 496 from 1,566. The petition by Alliance for the Wild Rockies and others comes as Montana is reporting brisk sales to hunters of wolf permits and Idaho on August 30 opens a wolf season that sanctions neck snares, foothold traps and luring wolves with electronic calls that imitate other wolves and injured prey.
