The Idaho Department of Fish and Game has reported that a black bear attacked a man in the Henderson Canyon area of the state on July 31, as he opened his garage door.

The headline today is "Wrong Dog." Caleb and I checked his wolf trapline. He caught a coyote in a leghold trap designed for a wolf. In fact wolves frequented the area after the coyote was trapped. They might have given the lesser canine fits—but why they didn't kill it is a mystery. Anyway, we could tell there had been a ruckus.

An Idaho family had a close shave last Friday, August 12, when their four-year-old daughter was attacked and nearly dragged away from a campfire by a mountain lion.

Effective Jan. 1, anyone hunting black bears in Idaho must show proof they have passed a bear identification test to help them differentiate between grizzly bears and black bears.

Our man returns to the rugged stretch of Idaho that his hunting party narrowly escaped last season in search of success on a mountain muley.

Information gathered by hunters using today’s generation of game cameras can improve the odds of success on opening day, but state conservation departments are also adopting the technology to get a better glimpse of tough-to-count wildlife populations. Biologists in Michigan and Idaho are among the latest to join that growing list.

The first grizzly bear hunts to be held in Wyoming and Idaho in more than 40 years have now been suspended following a federal judge's ruling just two days before the states' scheduled openers.

A mountain lion—any mountain lion—is a trophy all its own. But one Idaho hunter earned himself a truly unique big cat earlier this season.

Of bayed bears and broken branches—a week with dogs and houndsmen in western Idaho is a “paws-on” experience.
