History repeats it's self.  We may one day be forced to once again start the wolf genocide

[wolfbait]

"Since the wolf ’s recovery, whenever deer numbers decline, hunters have tended to blame an out-of-control wolf population. While it’s true that deer (white-tailed along the Western Great Lakes, mule deer in the Rockies) comprise an integral part of the wolf ’s diet—it’s estimated that an adult wolf kills and eats the equivalent of 15 to 20 per year—the science suggests the wolf ’s effect on deer populations may actually be a net positive."

Must be huge deer!

  why in the heck do we need more wolves?   no way!    the game dept should sell wolf permits for $100 and make money.  mike w

I think that when wdfw thinks that the state has the correct amount of breeding pairs the wolf population will be out of control

[jasnt]

Too bad more citizens in the NE corner of washington dont have the balls to take action an control the pests in there corner of the state



They seem to complain alot and arent about that action

you obviously have no clue what's going on in NE corner.

actually i do thats what pisses me off take to the woods trap um fight dirty

just dont be stupid and try and send a pelt via fed ex lol

So correct me if I'm wrong wapatriot, you want the guys in the ne corner to break the law so you can get a chance to hunt some elk and moose.  And if they don't break the law they have no balls.  Is that a fair assessement?

Hey WAP, maybe YOU need to come over to the NE and show us how it's done.
I'm sure some of the men over here will really show you the ropes!

You come shoot some wolves and I'll show you some great bull moose

folks in the methow havent seen an expolsion in wolf numbers wounder why

Actually the Methow/Okanogan has watched the wolf population expand, WDFW has refuse to confirm wolf predation on livestock, and refuse to confirm anymore wolf packs etc. in the Methow/Okanogan for years, instead blaming everything on the one pack they were finally force to confirm in 2008.

One thing you need to remember the USFWS and WDFW can bring wolves in as fast as they disappear, and then as usual pretend they know nothing.

As far as wolf control by the public, it's something that isn't talked about openly or at all.

Jasnt I really appreciate your offer it sounds like we should go on a hike I would love to see some Bull Moose. Anyone have any lambs I can take for a nature walk I promise to take good care of them.  I also need a video camera, lambs may need self defending and I may need proof if I get attacked.


The conditions for killing wildlife vary, based primarily on the classification of the wildlife species, the imminent nature of the threat to personal safety. Additional conditions defined by the department may also be important, depending on individual situations. Killing wildlife for personal safety is subject to all other state and federal laws including, but not limited to, Titles 77 RCW and 232 WAC.
(1) Killing wildlife for personal safety.
(a) It is permissible to kill wild animals engaged in the physical act of attacking a person.
(b) It is permissible to kill game animals posing an immediate threat of physical harm to a person.
