Thats a good plan. The caribou decline being that high is sure scary though! Good on their government for acting quickly with a plan!
Doubling the bounty for locals is a real sign of just how big the problem is. It will be interesting to follow results and see if the approach is adopted elsewhere
Good. It will be interesting to see how much the other game populations recover.
Equally curious what negative results might occur. Time will tell.
At least there is a government driven wolf reduction with some immediate economic upside. At first glance I give this a thumbs up.
Pretty interesting posting

Working up north of FSJ and the bounty on wolves is $1000, almost need to take a lay-off and hunt wolves for the winter haha seen probably half dozen wolves with lots of sign, too bad we’re not aloud to carry guns and shoot on the right of way
Shoot em' Whack em' Stack em'
Is there a way to prove wolves only came from the area that is under the incentive?
Not really related but reminds me of people in india taking advantage of their own incentive .... They tried to reduce the number of cobras and offered rewards for cobra heads. So people started breeding them. Then when the incentive ended, they just released what they had resulting in an even bigger problem than when it all began!
That's always a problem.
In Sask they gave us $25 for a set of coyote paws one year. 2006 I think. We pushed a bush for deer and 22 coyotes came out that year.
Guys from AB and MB were cashing in too and put an end to it.
It did make a big difference tho, coyote numbers have been lower ever since in our area.
That's a good start and can't hurt
There are some areas in BC that could use a similar program for sure. It would entice a lot of people to get out and mow down a few wolves.
