out of state. I have no idea what people do with wolf remains, though regulated hunting does not uniformly impose a requirement to eat what you kill. Exceptions usually fall under the heading of "varmints." Personally, I follow this principal, but much hunting/culling is done with an aim to prevent habitat degradation, esp. by feral hogs. The argument has been applied to wolves, mainly because of threats to other species (elk, mule deer, etc.), and livestock deprivation. Where deer are thinned out by government employees in Texas, provision is made for the slaughter of the animals, and stocking food banks. If wolves are like deer, more than one hide/coat is necessary. Perhaps some kind of arrangement can be made to consolidate the hides in suitable numbers for a tannery to take the order (with deer it is usually 5).
