Wolf hunt updates: Eagle man charged with poaching 

Randy Strickland was arraigned in Valley County on misdemeanor charges of taking a game animal illegally and shooting from a public highway, according to Idaho Fish and Game. The agency says the wolf was shot at about 6 p.m. Sept. 6 in an area closed to wolf hunting at the time.

The agency says Strickland has pleaded not guilty.

® Kills are approaching harvest limits in the Upper Snake, Palouse-Hells Canyon and McCall-Weiser wolf hunting zones, prompting wildlife managers to prepare to close the season in those areas.

Statewide, there were 69 wolf kills reported through Tuesday.

® The first wolf tag ever printed in Idaho has sold for $8,000 to Johnny Morris, the founder of Bass Pro Shops. Morris bought the tag last week in an auction sponsored by the Congressional Sportsmen Foundation.
