FWP releases minimum Wolf Count for last year

Montanas
verified
wolf
population declined by 73, 12
percent, last year while livestock
depredations by wolves continued
to decline, dropping about 46
percent from 2013.
The minimum number of
wolves counted by FWP at the
end of 2014 was 554 compared to
a minimum of 627 wolves counted
at the end of 2013 according to
Montana Fish Wildlife & Parks
annual wolf conservation and
management
report
released
Monday. Montanas minimum
wolf packs were counted at 134,
compared to 152 last year, while
breeding pairs increased to 33 from
28 counted last year.

The minimum wolf count is the
number of wolves actually verified
by FWP wolf specialists. The actual
number of wolves is estimated to
be 27 percent to 37 percent higher
than the minimum count. FWPs
complete report is available online
at fwp.mt.gov.
Overall, FWP Director Jeff
Hagener said Montanas wolf

population continues to be very

healthy and far above federal
recovery goals.
Among the best news is that
confirmed wolf depredations on
livestock again took a significant
drop in 2014, said Hagener.
Confirmed livestock depredations due to wolves included 35
cattle, 6 sheep and one horse in
2014, down 46 percent from 2013
loses of 50 cattle, 24 sheep, three
horses and one goat. Cattle losses
in 2014 were the lowest recorded in
the past eight years.
The
decline
in
wolf
depredations continues a general
downward trend that began in 2009.
For FWP, and we hope for others,
it reinforces the fact that we not
only have more tools for managing
wolf populations, but that were
applying them effectively, Hagener
said. One of our top priorities is to
minimize livestock losses, and we
think were continuing to make a
positive impact there.
The continuing decrease in
livestock depredations over the

past four years may be a result of

several factors including targeted
wolf depredation responses in
cooperation with USDA Wildlife
Servicesand the effects of wolf
harvest by hunters and trappers.
Two hundred and thirteen
wolves were taken by hunters
and trappers in the 2014 calendar
portion of the 2014-15 hunting/
trapping season compared to 231
taken in the 2013 calendar portion
of the 2013-14 season.
The total number of known
wolf mortalities during 2014
was 308, down from 335 in 2013,
with 301 of these mortalities
being human-related, including
213 legal harvests, 57 control
actions to further reduce livestock
depredations (down from 75 in
2013), 11 vehicle strikes, 10 illegal
killings, 6 killed under the newlyenacted Montana State Senate Bill
200, 2 capture related mortalities, 1
euthanized due to poor health and
1 legal tribal harvest. In addition, 1
wolf died of natural causes and 6 of
unknown causes.

Corps decreases runoff forecast

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (Corps) Missouri
River Basin Water Management Division is decreasing the
annual runoff forecast for the Missouri River Basin above
Sioux City, Iowa, to 20.3 million acre feet (MAF), which
is 80 percent of normal and 4.9 MAF less than average.
The decreased forecast is due to below normal mountain
snowpack and the lack of plains snow in the basin.

While below normal runoff is expected, the reservoirs
are well positioned to meet all of the authorized purposes
this year, says Jody Farhat, chief of the Missouri River
Basin Water Management Division. The Missouri River
Mainstem Reservoir System is designed and operated to
provide the Corps with the necessary flexibility to adjust
for varying conditions. The total volume of water stored
in the reservoir system is 57.6 MAF, 1.5 MAF into the
16.3-MAF annual flood control and multiple use zone.
Above normal temperatures coupled with below
normal precipitation patterns have stalled mountain
snowpack accumulation and melted the plains snow.
As of April 1, mountain snowpack was 68 percent of
normal in the reach above Fort Peck Dam and 74 percent
of normal in the reach between Fort Peck and Garrison
dams. Mountain snowpack appears to have peaked nearly
a month earlier than normal this year in the reaches
above the Fort Peck and Garrison dams. The mountain
snowpack typically peaks in mid-April, and runoff from
the melting snow enters the reservoir system from May
through July.
Steady-to-rising reservoir levels during the forage
fish spawn at the three, large upper reservoirs (Fort Peck,
Garrison and Oahe) are preferred but may be difficult to
accomplish without significant rainfall in the Missouri
River Basin during the coming weeks. If the runoff
distribution allows, the Corps will set releases to result
in steady to rising pools at Fort Peck and Oahe dams.
The forage fish spawn generally occurs from early April
through mid-June. The Corps will continue to monitor the
plains and mountain snowpack, basin soil conditions and
rainfall events to fine tune the regulation of the reservoir
system based on the most up-to-date information.

Baby Makers Rich Hjort shows off a nice female walleye on a chilly day during FWPs
annual Fort Peck walleye spawn. As of Sunday they had collected 3.2 million eggs from
26 females, and now that the weather is taking another turn for the better, things should
be looking up to hit a goal of 50 million walleye eggs before its done. Pictured below is
some great help from Tim, Justin, and Carl Zabrocki. Anyone wishing to volunteer some
time can contact contact Fort Peck biologist Heath Headley at 406-526-3471, EXT 206.
Volunteers are the main reason this has been so successful over the years, he says.

ASFP continued from front

accounts for more years of life lost than any other
cause of death.

Heres an even more alarming statistic:
in 2013, Montana was ranked #1 in the nation for
the highest suicide rate among states, according to
the American Association of Suicidology.
Simply stated, Montana has experienced too
many suicides losses in the past.

The Montana Chapter of American Foundation
for Suicide Prevention (AFSP) is hosting two
workshops in Glasgow next week. On Monday
evening, April 13, is a suicide prevention training
class for everyone, called safeTALK.
On Tuesday, April 13, is an all day workshop
for helping others survive the loss of a loved one
to suicide. This all day workshop is for counselors,
pastors, and survivors of suicide loss.

Both of these classes are free, but preregistration
is required.

Mondays class will be held from 6-9 p.m. at the
Frances Mahon Deaconess Hospital. safeTALK is a
training that prepares anyone to identify persons
with thoughts of suicide and connect them to suicide
first aid resources. Most people with thoughts of
suicide invite help to stay safe. Alert helpers know
how to use these opportunities to support that desire
for safety. Space is limited to 30 participants (must
be 16 or older) and you can register by contacting
Joan Nye by e-mailing joannye@iwks.net or by
calling her at 406-321-0591.
On Tuesday, the event Suicide Loss Support
Group Facilitator Training Workshop will be held
from 8:15 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. at FMDH. This class
is geared to counselors, pastors, and survivors of
suicide loss, to learn how to facilitate support group
for suicide loss bereavement. Survivors of suicide
loss also will benefit from and are needed for this
workshop, even if they dont think they could
facilitate a support group, because they learn that
they are not alone, learn why they feel the way they
do, and learn some things that have helped other
survivors of this loss along the journey of healing
after suicide loss.

Space for this class is limited to 15 participants,
so register now by contacting Joan Nye: joannye@
iwks.net or call her at 406-321-0591.
