 If they don't head east soon they will be cut off for the winter by the snow. I doubt they would move east after the big snow starts.
The things that come to those who wait, may be the things left by those who got there first!

Scottr i grew up in that area... There are plenty of Nieve do gooders that live there. Besides, Little Si, Bandera, exit 38 are all places that seattle folkes love to recreate... Perfect so that thye can have close encounters for the animals they love...  :twocents:

This topic should be sent here http://www.nwhikers.net/forums/index.php. Under the Stewardship heading and then under the topic "Wolves need our help now".  That'll get em going since most of Seattropolis hikes up off of the Middle Fork.

Phool, according to Nat. Geo. And animal planet, winter is the peak time of the year for wolves, that's when they're at their best because the game is plentiful and easier to catch.  So I don't think the snow and the pass would be a problem and besides, maybetheyll realize there is game (king/pierce co.tree huggers) to eat over there.

Better them than us. They're the ones who wanted them anyway.

Yeah but thats because the elk and deer head lower and are more concentrated, the ungulates don't typically stay in the deep snow.

I don't believe any of us on here wanted them in any of our backyards unless they come with OTC tags

As sad as it is to say the wolves getting into King county is the best damn thing that can happen to get the fast track on managing them.  Once a few attacks on either people, or their precious animals that they consider on the same level as humans happen there will be much more pressure on Olympia to expedite the management process.

The faster they are confirmed over there the faster we hit the population dispersment goals outlined by the wolf conservation and management plan.  Report report report, then report it again

Wolves in the suburbs?

Which side are you on if neither will claim you?

We don't need tags for coyotes. Year round, no bag limit, no tags. Seem agreeable enough?
