Taking the wild out of the West

The day wolves lost their Endangered Species protection, 253M, a gray wolf trapped six years ago in Utah, was shot in Wyoming.

It was one of three wolves killed legally Friday near Daniel, Wyo. Franz Camenzind, executive director of the Jackson Hole Conservation Alliance, told the Tribune's Patty Henetz that
people knew the wolves had been hanging around an elk feeding ground. "On Friday, they went out and shot them."

Camenzind says 253M "was a good wolf. He covered thousands of miles and didn't cause any trouble."
