Thx for this, That opens it up a bit more but for most layman like myself hunting out in the crown land here is what I found:

A Resident may, without a licence, hunt (but not trap) timber wolf from the opening of any big game season in a particular WMU to May 31, 2022, or until June 15, 2022 in WMUs where black bear seasons are open until June 15, 2022.

If you could find out who runs the cattle on the areas you are in, i bet they would sign a wolf hunt agreement. Some guys don't like it.

And really, wolves are not much good from May 31-Sept 1 anyways unless you're the one dealing with predation issues.

That's a great idea. I do not much care for the fur, more to save some of the deer in a few areas I hunt.

Can you shoot cougar all year round? Thought they were a quota species

If a cougar is bothering your horses, any time of the year you can let him have a lead pill.

My understanding (and I might be wrong) is that a landowner kill will count against the quota for the area.

Either way, it must be registered:

*Cougar
Any person who is the owner or occupant of privately owned land may at any time of year, hunt (but not trap) cougar on such lands without a licence. Hunting with dogs is prohibited under this authority. Under this authority, registration is required within one week of the kill by bringing the skin and skull (or intact carcass) to a Fish and Wildlife office. A premolar tooth will be retained for aging.

* It is not legally necessary to salvage pelts of furbearing animals (includes coyote and wolf) or black bear taken in accordance with regulations authorizing the control of problem wildlife set out in this part. The skin and skull of cougar taken on privately-owned land as described must be submitted at time of registration as noted, but the cougar pelt does not need to be further salvaged. Click here for information about seasons for coyote and wolf.

Good friend of mine shot one eating a coyote not too far from the yard. Registered it, fish cops gave him a little guff, but the law says he is allowed to keep it.....which he did!
