Trapping a few wolves here and there is pretty easy and not overly expensive, but a mass cull of big numbers is pricey. Not worth it for just the pelts alone.
You would be totally rewriting science if trappers could remove the 600 wolves. I've trapped and snared them and think it would be impossible to clean them out. Science says a maximum of 15% of the total population can be taken by trappers and I think thats high. I mentioned earlier snares are much less selective than the proper toxicant and chopper shooting.
