Nicky Ouellet: Rachel, we’re halfway through Montana’s legislative session. Can you bring us up to speed on several bills that made it through the transmittal deadline that take aim at reducing the wolf population in Montana?

For context, the bag limit right now is five wolves per season whether someone has a trapping license, hunting license or both.
