wolves

They don't have to release wolves. Wolves travel long distances on their own. It's absolutely conceivable that wolves have taken up in St. Helens on their own.

People keep bringing up whether WDFW released the wolves.  What does it matter?   We all know that these are not native, carry a deadly disease, kill cattle , wipe out our game herds and nothing much is done.  The govt. forgives themselves.  They are the ones that decide if it's legal or not.  Do you think the govt. will punish themselves for anything?   So if somebody does come up with proof they were released it will raise peoples hackles for a while and then die off.  These wolves carry Saint status.  They can murder, harrass, destroy peoples livlihoods and wipe out game herds and will be forgiven. 
  We have our 15 packs already.  We just have to convince WDFW we have them.  This is the biggest hurdle is to prove it to them.  The bio's don't get out of the office and spend much time looking at computer models and believe they have much more wisdom than any toothless, ignorant hunter or farmer.  We have to be persistent.

Actually, proof f release carries stiff federal penalties. This would not be forgotten. It's unlikely that someone on the taxpayer's teet would be this stupid. It would not only end their career but quite possibly carry criminal indictments.

consider a third of them reside in the Methow Valley and they are labelled as ONE, thats kind of hard.
