Hunters have almost met the 75-wolf season quota, so Montana ended its first big-game hunt for gray wolves on Monday.

As of Sunday night - two weeks before the season's scheduled close - hunters had killed 72 wolves this season statewide. The statewide quota is 75.

State officials expected that a few more wolves would be harvested on Monday before the season officially closed at a half-hour past sunset.

"We decided to close the season in anticipation of reaching that quota," said Ron Aasheim, FWP's chief communications officer.
wow if these wolves were "EVERYWHERE" the season should have been over three weeks ago...
