Wolf Policy For Nebraska??

Question

my grandpa and i have spotted a pack of 3 wolves in the southwestern part of nebraska where he has a few hundred acres of land...his neighbors have been telling him of huge dog prints theyve been seeing in their pastures and nobody around there has anything bigger than a blue or red healer.. he has a dead cow out in his pasture so he can get coyotes to come in and so he can shoot them...but last week he saw a "coyote" that was huge, and since then he and a few of his neighbors spotted them often, and later was confirmed from me and some of his neighbors that it was in fact a wolf...ive lived in wyoming for 4 years and learned the differeance...so if ur hear to tell me that it isnt a wolf but a coyote...get out of here...its confirmed they are wolves...so my question is whether or not nebraska has a wolf policy that says if a rancher sees one...if they can shoot it to protect their livestock...cuz we want to get rid of them in the area...but are afraid of punishment by the law. THANKS!!

Answer 1

Wolves are listed as a threatened species in Nebraska.  You cannot kill them.  I dunno why you would want to.  Keep your livestock fenced in "no climb" fencing and protect them.  I just spent about $30,000 to build no climb fencing around two acres - inpenetrable by my neighbor's kids to protect my horses from pounds of sugar and apples!

Answer 4

it is the backwards thinking of A*S*S*H*O*L*E*S*like you that made them extinct in so many states why not just let them LIVE they were hear well before mindless D*I*N*K*S* like yourselves were here and murdered them out of mindless fear i hope there are more wildlife minded people of there with the same thoughts as myself out there further more baiting coyotes with a dead cow to shoot them that's real grown up not man enough to go out and track them like a real hunter
