No comment yet from Otter on wolf de-listing impasse

There's no comment yet from Idaho Gov. Butch Otter on the report from Montana Gov. Brian Schweitzer about wolf de-listing talks going bad; Otter is in Las Vegas for a Western Governors Association meeting, and that's where he participated in yesterday's 6 p.m. conference call between Interior Secretary Ken Salazar and the governors of Montana, Idaho and Wyoming. Otter's press secretary, Jon Hanian, said the conference call was a follow-up and another one took place on Dec. 2 involving the same parties; that was a follow-up to their in-person meeting in Denver on Nov. 29, to which the governors were summoned by the interior secretary.
