Supporters of a state-managed wolf population cheer Idaho Gov. C.L. "Butch" Otter during a rally Thursday in Boise. Otter said Thursday he will support public hunts to kill all but 100 gray wolves in the state once the federal government removes the animal from Endangered Species Act protections, and that he hopes to shoot a wolf himself.
