May 3, 2012, Bozeman, Mont.—Wolves took center stage at the Gallatin County Commission hearings tonight. Proponents argued ethical concerns to maintain the wolf population. Others claimed wolves bring in millions of dollars of eco-tourist funds. And a few denied any real impact on the big game population despite a report from a local Fish and Game expert who said she counted only 4 moose in a recent fly-over in Gallatin County. One person testified that having county involvement in the wolf issues was simply adding more bureaucracy to the problem.
