Montana rancher injured while attempting to haze wolves

An 18-year-old man who went out to haze away wolves near his family's calving pens is recovering after hitting a snow bank and suffering a broken jaw and compressed spinal fracture. Thomas Price was injured last month after attempting to scare away four wolves within 200 yards of a pen with cows and calves at the family's ranch near Avon in western Montana. An official with the Department of Agriculture tells the Montana Standard in a story published Sunday that at least three wolf packs are in the Avon area. AP
