That's because the government should've said no to the greenies on this one and had a very limited plan. They didn't and now it IS their fault people's pets and livestock are dying.

The plan has nothing to do with this. If the WDFW had not written a wolf plan, the wolves would still be here, and the dog still would have been attacked.

i think your wrong if there was a good plan the wolves would have enough food they wouldnt need to come close to house they would stay i the mountain.

Wolf numbers have not yet reached what the plan calls for, not even close.

So I'd expect for these types of issues to get much worse as time goes on. This is only the beginning.

ON that we agree, it's going to get much, much worse.

We'll see what this summer brings when the cattle are let out to range.

Looks like someone is trying to take care of that issue V I.

"The Washington state Senate has passed a measure to allow livestock and pet owners to shoot gray wolves without a permit when the wolves are attacking or threatening their animals."

"Additionally, according to The Oregonian, Senate Bill 5193/House Bill 1219 would reclassify wolves as big game."

Funny how those on the westside who expect us on the eastside to change our lifestyles to accomodate wolves don't want anything to do with wolves in their neighborhood. 

I don't expect you to change your lifestyle. All I said is it makes sense to keep dogs and cats inside at night, or in a kennel or fenced yard. I keep my dog in at night. We often have coyotes in my back yard just on the other side of my fence. So I keep my dog inside, even though we don't have wolves.

Now kids on the other hand, that's entirely different. I'd think it much less likely for a kid to be attacked by a wolf. Dogs and wolves, obviously are going to fight. That's only natural and is to be expected.

This isn't a human were talking about here. It's a dog. So lets stay on topic.

Bobcat, yes this is about our dogs, and our livestock, and our kids, and the poor old lady who testified at the Colville meeting that she is afraid to go outside because wolves are living close to her home. It's also about the young girl who nearly broke into tears beause her parents can't protect her goats and sheep against wolves.

I have owned hounds for almost 40 years and have never had to bring them into my home to keep them safe. I live on 32 acres a couple miles from Colville, we have seen moose, turkey, bear, deer, coyotes, and even a cougar on this place. Our hounds have been kept on a half acre portion of this acreage since we moved on this place about 25 years ago. Never have we worried about anything coming in and killing our entire family of dogs.

So let me get this straight Bobcat, you expect me to bring the 12 hounds and 1 bird dog in my home every night to keep them safe because you feel I am an unresponsible dog owner?

Specifically, I would like to know how that is not expecting my family to change our lifestyle because of wolves?

Are McIrvins supposed to bring their hundreds of cattle into their home at night?

Dale, if my dog was hurt by a wolf I wouldn't go crying to the state, asking for them to cover the vet bill. I guarantee that.

This is what a coyote looks like that comes into my yard uninvited....


This is what a wolf looks like that does it....

Do you note the difference in the two species.

All of my adventures in the woods, I don't recall being hunted or threatened by a coyote.   Yeah, there is a difference, and if you don't see it, then you are .......

[boneaddict]

Do you know why the state or the feds ARE RESPONSIBLE.   Because they have LIED TO ALL OF US and continue to do so about the numbers of wolves out there.   Eventually all of their lies will be found out.   The hard way unfortunately.

 Thanks for reminding me to send another message in support of SB 5187...AND HB 1191!

Bone addict, good job! However I'm not sure what your point is. the fact is coyotes do eat people's pets from time to time. So do wolves, and likely this will occur much more often as wolf numbers increase. Hunted or not, it will still happen.

The question that not many seem to be addressing: do you wish for your tax dollars to be paid out anytime someone's pet is killed or harmed by a wolf? (Or a coyote, cougar, bear, raccoon, porcupine, etc)
