Check out this video interview with Zach Owens one of the more successful wolf hunters in Idaho where we examine some of the reasons why we should all be wolf hunting whenever we get the opportunity.
As the Editor-in-Chief of GunsAmerica, Hunt365, Decoding Darkness, and Suppressor Academy, True Pearce brings a rare blend of legal expertise, competitive shooting credentials, and deep hunting knowledge to the forefront of the firearms world. A former professional sponsored 3-Gun and Multigun competitor with multiple championships and titles, True’s shooting career began in long-range and tactical sniper matches—and he still burns powder in precision competitions, now branching into Hunter NRL.
A certified firearms instructor who has trained over 10,000 students face-to-face, True has also served on both sides of the courtroom as an attorney and currently as an elected Prosecuting Attorney. He has prosecuted and defended high-profile self-defense and firearms cases, giving him a unique, real-world perspective on the Second Amendment.
Outside the courtroom and off the range, True is a true western outdoorsman. A lifelong hunter and rancher, he rides and hunts off his own string of horses and pack animals, chasing elk, mule deer, wolves, coyotes, and anything else in season. He’s a longtime reloader, producing both precision rifle ammo and, back in the day, handloading over 40,000 rounds of 9mm and 5.56 annually for competition.
He’s also a thermal and night vision expert, known for his obsession with high-end optics, and is rarely found without a camera or a guitar nearby. Whether he’s glassing a distant ridge, reviewing cutting-edge gear, or deep in legal research, True brings passion, precision, and grit to everything he does.

Before we can trust your opinions on wildlife management, perhaps you should learn to proofread your video titles.
While I’ve no problem with F&G offering tags for population control and am not a rabid wolf-defender…. I actually feel dumber for having watched this video.
When I hunted in Peace River area of Alberta, my outfitter always added a gratis wolf tag. Never punched it, but nice to have.
Too many people pushing wolfs out of their rightful habit sound like where the problem is which needs to be address first and foremost.
Does this not sound like what we did to the American Indians?
Thank God the Indians didn’t eat all the game in the the woods. WE put the wolves back in the environment, WE need to mange them.
