Judge rejects Alaska plan to begin killing wolves

updated 1 hour, 10 minutes ago

ANCHORAGE, Alaska - A federal judge on Thursday rejected the state of Alaska's request to immediately kill seven wolves in a national wildlife refuge on Unimak Island.

The state wants to remove the wolves from caribou calving grounds and boost numbers on the Aleutian chain island.

However, Judge H. Russel Holland refused Alaska's request for a temporary restraining order against the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.

Instead, the judge set a hearing Monday and said the court would consider the merits of a preliminary injunction.

3. And sarah was so looking forward to hunting wolves this weekend
Instead of killing them why do they not trap and relocate.

Does not have to be about killing all the time.
