Wolf trapper education course offered in Salmon Nov. 2

In this interactive training, students will learn about wolf management, wolf trapping regulations and ethics, wolf habits and behavior, avoiding non-target captures, proper techniques, pelt care, and reporting requirements.

Here's what you need to know if you wish to take a course:

• Anyone intending to trap wolves in Idaho must attend wolf trapper education prior to purchasing wolf trapping tags.
• Anyone intending to trap wolves that did NOT hold an Idaho trapping license prior to 2011 is required to take both trapper and wolf-trapper education courses. So, if that applies to you, check for upcoming trapper education classes as well.
• Students must pre-register online. The cost is $9.75.
