Idaho Fish, Game Commission hears complaints about wolves
The Idaho Fish and Game Commission began its quarterly meeting in Jerome Wednesday, and at a public forum that evening, about half of the dozen residents that spoke up said they blamed wolves for the lack of elk.

The meeting continues today with both the westslope cutthroat trout management plan and an update of the 1999 elk management plan on the agenda.
