Range Rider Will Discourage Wolves From Targeting Livestock

The Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife is trying a new approach to decreasing the conflict between wolves and the owners of livestock. The Fish and Wildlife Department is using federal grant money to help a rancher in Wallowa County employ a range rider. The rider will track and document wolf activity, and use non-lethal methods to discourage any wolves that are targeting livestock. ODFW's Rick Hargrave says this pilot program could be a model for other areas. Rick Hargrave: "I think people just want to see, the fact that we have a range rider out there and kind of see how things work. And we're hoping to be positive that this will be a step, a non-lethal deterrent that will keep these conflicts from happening."...more

Wow, a game dept. trying to work with and assist a rancher.

I wonder if that concept will ever be tried in NM?
