The Independent Record, Helena, Monday, September 2, 1996 Wyoming wildlife agency balking at the idea of managing wolves Tri-West Lofia jackpot won By The Associated Press A Tri-West ticket sold in Billings matched numbers for the game's estimated jackpot of $736,410 in the weekend lot-terydrawings. The ticket sold at County Market in Billings Heights bears the numbers 24 and 30. No one hit the jackpot in Powerball, the other multis-tate lottery offered in Montana, or in Montana Cash. Estimated jackpots for the drawings Wednesday are $16 million in Powerball and $60,000 in Montana Cash. The Tri-West jackpot will be $150,000.

Apart from the big prize in Tri-West, the top weekend lottery winnings among Montana players were 13 prizes of $250, also in Tri-West.

Rancher gets environmental award JUDITH GAP (AP) The nation's agriculture secretary has presented an environmental stewardship award to Judith Gap rancher Robert E. Lee and his family. The family developed a system to rotate grazing on 24 pastures. The goal is to graze the Lees' 400 cattle in a way that helps protect the quality of the land.

Lee and five other regional winners of the environmental awards were recognized by Agriculture Secretary Dan Glickman last month at a banquet in Washington, D.C. The National Cattlemen's Beef Association gives awards to ranchers who protect natural resources while maintaining or increasing profitability. CHEYENNE, Wyo. (AP) The Wyoming Game and Fish Department someday will be asked to take over control of the wolves the federal government brought to Yellowstone National Park, but the agency says it would rather not have that responsibility. It is, however, preparing a draft wolf management plan in anticipation of the U.S.

Fish and Wildlife Service asking it to take responsibility for the animals once there are enough of them to remove them from the endangered species list. Department Director John Baughman said he hoped the federal government would provide some money to help pay for wolf management. "We do think we could do a pretty good job managing (wolves)," he said. "But not without resources and not without a united Wyoming position that supports that. "We do think wolves are a legitimate part of the ecosystem and certainly they are here to stay now," he added.

The state Game and Fish Department receives no funding from the Legislature. Most of its reve- nue comes from hunters and anglers who buy licenses, and they should not be asked to shoulder the costs of managing wolves, said Reg Rothwell, supervisor of biological services. Rothwell and Baughman said management of grizzly bears provides a good example of what could happen in such a situation. Federal funding for grizzly management has diminished, but landowners and ranchers expect the state Game and Fish Department to respond when there are problems with bears. Since the animals are classified as trophy game animals in Wyoming, the agency is required to compensate ranchers and landowners for losses verified to have been caused by grizzlies.

Those and other management costs could run up to $600,000 this year, Baughman said. Anonymous meeting tonight at 8 p.m. at Co-Dependents St. John's Church.
