This is the second installment of our podcasts regarding the Wyoming Wolf Incident by speaking with Carter Niemeyer.
We discussed the details of the incident, the reactions within both the hunting and non-consumptive communities, what the fallout could be from and Wyoming's massive elk herds prompting more hunting tags.
Carter Niemeyer retired from the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service in 2006 as the Wolf Recovery Coordinator for the state of Idaho. He was an integral part of the Federal Wolf Reintroduction in both Yellowstone and Idaho. Carter has authored two books, Wolfer and Wolf Land which can be purchased through multiple book retailers.
