Saw one a couple years ago right in the crater on Crater Mtn. Reported it and hoped that a season might be coming. Good news for sure.

Yup,it's about time.Wish it had been open last year when I saw 2 in the field across from my place.Better late than never! Gunner

Looks like a whole bunch of wolves are going to become "good" wolves this year. (the only good wolf is a dead one.)

Good News for Region 8 Brian has always pushed for a wolf season but First nations and the uppers in Victoria was always been the hold up lets go get the 4 legged *******s before the NDP get into power and pull the plug on a wolf season

Will there be tags have to purchased for wolves or is no tag needed?

[Steeleco]

Oh yeah, there's to be a few less in the Kane Valley this year. Now if only I can find the big white one I had in the sights last fall?

Sounds good to me. Since we've abandoned the use of poison for population control and rightfully so, it seems that hunting is a much better and humain control of wolf populations without which the balance of nature will be tipped. After reading the article, I'm not sure exactly what they mean by "wolf densities and prey biomass". I agree, the wolf population has increased dramatically in the okanagan recently.

Thanks everyone who reported sightings, wrote letters, and supported the BCWF, GOABC, and BCTA in the push for this season.

Thanks also to Brian Harris for keeping up the submissions to Victoria over and over, until approval was gained.

Looking forward to the first "region 8 wolf hunt" threads on HBC!
