WDFW schedules meeting in Colville
on wolves' impact on game species

OLYMPIA - The Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW) will hold a public meeting March 27 in Colville to discuss the potential impact of wolves on area game species such as deer and elk.

The meeting is scheduled from 6 to 8 p.m. at the Colville Ag Trade Center, 317 West Astor Ave.

State and local WDFW wildlife managers will present information on monitoring efforts in northeast Washington along with population trends and harvest data for white-tailed deer, elk and moose. They'll also discuss the status of wolves in the region and the impact wolves have had on deer and elk populations in other western states.

Dave Ware, WDFW game manager, said the department has not yet documented any measureable impacts from wolves on game species in Washington, but recognizes that reports from other states have raised public concerns.

"We want to talk to people in northeast Washington about this issue, because that's the area of the state that has the largest number of wolves," Ware said. "We'd encourage area residents who have concerns to attend this meeting." 

This message has been sent to the WDFW All Information mailing list.

Maybe you could talk Bobcat into driving over and see the warm welcome they give the WDFW. Also the sentiment of the crowd we have wolves!!

Not sure you would get the same effect from the meeting in Olympia!!   


This last weekend I had a single wolf howl just across the river from me in Ferry county at 12:30 a.m. when the dog and I went out and one of us peed in the back yard!!

I would like to ship that "one" to your side along with several other's!

Not sure you would get the same effect from the meeting in Olympia!!   

No,I'm sure of that, but I can provide a report of what all the wolf huggers had to say. Last meeting I was at they just about made me
