From KTVB:
"BOISE, Idaho -- The Idaho Department of Fish and Game is putting the warning out: Tuesday's wolf hunt doesn't have a green light just yet.
U.S. District Judge Donald Molloy in Missoula still has to weigh in on environmental groups efforts to stop the hunt, as part of their push to have federal Endangered Species Act protections restored to the big predators that now number 1,650 across Idaho, Montana and Wyoming.
Molloy will oversee a hearing Monday, where he could make a decision on Idaho and Montana's planned hunts."
This is the same judge that stopped it last year. I hear he is a native of Montana.
