ST. PAUL, Minn. - State officials say Minnesotans can no longer kill wolves unless their lives are in danger.

The change was brought about by a federal judge's ruling Friday effectively restoring gray wolves to the endangered species list in Great Lakes states.

Department of Natural Resources spokesman Chris Niskanen says that means farmers and ranchers concerned about wolves preying on cattle can't kill the wolves themselves. Instead, they should call conservation officers.

U.S. District Judge Beryl Howell's decision could also halt Minnesota's wolf hunting and trapping seasons. But Niskanen says the federal government's stance could change again before the state sets its wolf hunting season next summer.

Howling for Wolves founder and president Maureen Hackett cheered the ruling. Her group has fought against a wolf hunt in Minnesota. The most recent hunting and trapping season ended recently after a 250-wolf harvest goal was exceeded.

Hackett says she hopes non-lethal wolf management strategies will be implemented instead.

Non lethal.  That's funny.  Lets live trap them and bring them south to the metro area and see how the libtards like their cats and dogs disappearing.
