Proposed Rule to extend maximum trap check time for wolf snares in Units 7 and 9 during winter.

The intent of this proposed rule is to extend the time period by which any person must visit every snare placed for gray wolves and remove any catch therein such that the time period between checks does not exceed 192 hours (8 days) for specific units and time of year. The proposed rule extends the time period between snare checks only in that portion of Game Management Unit 7 including and upstream from the Gold Creek and Mosquito Creek drainages, and in Game Management Unit 9, and only within the period January 1 – February 15.
