That is wild!!! I have property there and I saw what I thought were huge coyote tracks up at the 4700 ft level last winter. The tracks were the size of a great dane or so. Never saw him, but got me thinking abit.

Well think about it. Are deer carniverous? Do they hunt in packs and kill for the thrill and not eat the entire animal? Poaching a predator that kills way more animals than it needs, is far different then poaching a deer. The wolf threatens MY passtime in the woods.

I am sorry - I'm not a wolf advocate, far from it. My family runs a cow/calf operation in NE Oregon, it's a threat. But what you're saying is absolutely ridiculous... Because it affects YOUR hobby, it then make's it ok to break the law? Give me a break... I guess when something happens or occurs to my disliking than I have the right and ability to act without consequence? This is a dead horse I get it, but what bothers me the most are the attitudes of double standard. Right is right, wrong is wrong. Whether we like it or not, we have to follow these laws. What sort of example are we setting for the younger generations that may read this board - that it's ok to poach as long as you feel like it's the right thing?!

I never said it was right. AND...I never said I would do it. It is just my opinion. Wolves are a bad thing.

Is it poaching if our Native American brothers/sisters do the shooting?

 Good Question. See  Elk Hunting ...."good day for the tribes" that should answer it and it might just be no.

Roger that Grainfed - and I didn't mean to accuse you as such. My rant was more along the lines that I don't feel there's a difference between poaching an unwanted predator vs a game animal. I hate wolves just as much as the next guy, but I'm looking at it from the action standpoint, not the content.  :brew:

I guess some potential shooters feel that the wolf is:

1) Not an endangered species. Reasoning - There are what? 60-80,00 of them in Canada and Alaska?
2) Destructive to other species, public and private property to the point where the law is merely an obstruction. Note - The ESA was put in place with reasonable justification, but the time has come to pass for justification to continue to keep the Gray Wolf on the list is what potential shooters might think.
3) Invasive species which should be treated just like any other invasive animal in the state's ecosystems.

I got back last week from my farmer friend in Colville. That's where I have been taking my daughter Deer hunting since she was four. So far, she's two for two the last two years at age nine and 10. Yes, I'm proud. I stopped in at the farm and noted a complete lack of deer in the fields where I usually see at least 100. The farmer told me there are wolves in the area now and they are decimating the deer. He won't let us hunt there anymore. We went there because it was safe for my daughter. They even had pictures for the Game Dept. The Game Dept refused to admit wolves were there and said the pics were of hybrids.
You can't fix stupid.

Well seeing as there not wolves there good to shoot then. At least that the way it sounds?
