Hunters Are Asked To Report Signs Of Wolves

Print

Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks requests that hunters report any sightings or signs of wolves.  A gray wolf is, on average 2.5 feet tall; 5-6 feet long; 70-120 pounds with a broad snout, round ears and fur ranging from gray, black or tan to white.

FWP must prepare annual reports to document the recovered status and distribution of the Montana wolf population.  Information provided by hunters will help aid in the management and ultimate delisting of wolves from the Endangered Species Act.  

Hunters and others can enter reports of wolves online at fwp.mt.gov by searching for: "Report A Wolf Observation," or contact the nearest FWP regional or state office.  To report a dead wolf or possible illegal activity, contact the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service at 307-261-6365, or call 1-800-TIP-MONT.
