A handful of outfitters will rally Saturday in Jackson to protest wolves, a predator they say has impacted their livelihood and their heritage by reducing elk populations in some segments of the Jackson Elk Herd.
Conservation groups counter by saying that the Jackson Elk Herd, and the majority of elk herds around the state, are over the population objectives set by the Wyoming Game and Fish Department. Further, they say that wolves have restored perhaps the only intact ecosystem in the lower 48 states and their presence benefits numerous other species by keeping elk in check.
