From a recent email sent out by Janet Barwick, NRDC Montana Wildlife Advocate . . .

Senate Bill 414, the Montana Wolf Control Act, has been voted down in the Montana House.  This bill would have made it legal to shoot wolves on private land, at any time, even without a hunting license, endangering the hard fought recovery of wolves in the Northern Rockies. It is highly unlikely that there will be a revision of this bill before the legislature recesses on April 30th, and unlikely that it will come up again in the special session slated for June.
