Hey Wolfbait,

Your two nemeses are either showing their age(too young) or are just plain clueless as to the "outdoors" :chuckle:

Give me a shout back if you know about the "story" of the Sun Mt Grizzly :chuckle: :chuckle: :chuckle: that I am referring to :chuckle: them are sure some funny looking grizzly tracks!! LOL :chuckle:

Did you ever see the picture of the one Eilis Peters shot at the Mazama junction??

I posted the 99.9% chance of a grizzly bear sighting on WH, it's back in the wolf threads somewhere.  :chuckle:

Actually there are three people who shoot blanks for WDFW, one only shows up to defend WDFW's "wolf migrations", soon the falling down starts and then they name calling. The pro-wolf crowd is allowed to call names because they are special. :chuckle:

Hippie Wolf Activist Gets Stoned, Knocks over Lava Lamp & Burns Down Treehouse *** WA - Moon Java Bongmeister, age, 62 has become yet another casuality of the 1960's hippie era -- victim of a painful lava lamp accident. "He was really upset after returning from Idaho to protest the killing of wolves," said his daughter Skylark Daisychain Bongmeister. "He became really depressed when he learned that WDFW had not told him about their recent wolf release in NC WA. Last time I saw him like this was after we got back from a "Stop Killing Houseflies" protest and drum circle rally in San Francisco. His depression led to him smoking up all of his medical marijuana and drinking all of his Mogan David (mad-dog) wine. That's when it happened," said, another daughter by a different mother, Daydream Butterfly Bongmeister. Dad was so stoned he knocked over a lava lamp and started his tree house on fire. He lost everything. His bell bottom pants, his love bead necklaces, all of his head-bands, his Grateful Dead albums, his Woodstock posters and even his prized Patchouli Oil Collection. "It's all those Idaho hunters fault. They don't respect the wolf spirits and the energy life forces in the cosmic soup of life, said Skylark Daisychain Bongmeister. "It's time for the Bongmeister family to come together and 'spark a bowl" of ganja and try to forget WDFW's DNA tested migrating wolves," she said... "
lol :chuckle: now that IS pretty funny!!

Good one Wolfbait,   sounds so true!!

I still remember the "hippies" who turned a culvert in the forest into their "home" for the summer :chuckle:

They were getting back to the "good ole days" :chuckle: poaching everything in site :bash:

Sounds like the picture of the "wolf trap" that wolfbait had a few years ago.
:fire.:

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield

I'd say one nemeses, I think Wacoyotehunter knows wolves are here to stay and takes a more practical approach. I would bet that Wacoyotehunter would be a lot happier if he didn't have to worry bout wolves interfering with his hounds.

If you were given money to study wolves and told to document packs but also told when you reach a certain number of packs we will not give you any more money.  You are also told that you and only you have the authority to declare packs.  You now are on your own and we will come back and remove your money if and when you reach the designated quota.
  So if I lie I get to eat but. If I tell the truth I will starve.  Eat or starve?
------------------
Now there is some truth.

Storybook time from the Chronicles of Caretaker....
I remember some years back on a guided fishing trip way north of the Canadian border, the guide had baited a wolf and shot it, it had a collar on it which he turned in to the the Canadian Fish and Game, they determined that wolf was released in Portland 20 years ago and had migrated some 16 hrs north of the border.  Damn.

Thanks for the info Caretaker.

In 2010 we talk to a guy who worked for Canadian wildlife, he said we would be shock to know the number of wolves that came back to Canada wearing collars and how many times the USFWS came back and bought more wolves.

HAHAHA  I had forgotten about that trap.  I wonder how many he caught... doubtless he caught hundreds, after all- there is a wolf hiding behind every tree in the Methow.  :)

Well...to be fair they are not behind the trees...they are in the back of every green pickup or wdfw rig up that way  :chuckle: :chuckle:

Really? Jack was the only person on W-H who PM me wanting all the details on the wolf trap, he seemed quite disappointed when I sent him a picture of a sixty foot x four ft culvert that someone had sprayed Wolf Trap on the top. :chuckle:

When I posted the first info of WDFW releasing wolves in the Methow, once again Jack and WC were the only two on W-H who PM fishing for all the info I had. And now of course they are two of the few who believe the wolves decided to settle down a few miles outside of Twisp, “This is a natural colonization,” said Fitkin. “The wolves are naturally immigrating.”. Thank goodness we now know all about the DNA testing of the Lookout Pack.

  I think it's great we have pro-wolfers on W-H and other sites, it give those of us who want the truth more incentive to seek out the truth, not go with the BS lies of environmental groups, WDFW and the USFWS. :tup:

"I still remember the "hippies" who turned a culvert in the forest into their "home" for the summer"

I am going to make a assumption that there are some on here that are to young to know what a "hippie" is or was.

Most people around here when you say "whale culvert" they know what picture comes to mind. 

Back in the 70's  there were HUGE round culverts out in the forest, some were to be installed, some had been removed.   Hippies would take these and turn them into "homes" for the summer.  Its amazing what people will do when they think something is "free" for their use.   A 12 foot diameter tube can be turned into a real nice shed!! :chuckle:

 :chuckle: I seen a culvert with "wolf trap" painted on it :chuckle: plus other "signs" painted on other culverts!!   Kinda like someone was having a "Kilroy was here" fetish :chuckle:

Collared gray wolf will help statewide study
http://methowvalleynews.com/2014/06/12/collared-gray-wolf-will-help-statewide-study/

Funny how WDFW didn't mention that they caught this wolf in McFarland CR, well not really. The lookout pack is denning up in Alder Cr..

Just another wolf added to the Lookout pack, as the people of Okanogan county watch the joke called WDFW work their wolf magic.

How close is WA to reaching 15 breeding pairs over 3 consecutive years, to come off the endangered species list?
