That's certainly an unexpected and positive surprise coming out of those two groups.  :tup:

Not as unexpected as you  might think. And not the first time for CNW. Full statements:

http://www.conservationnw.org/news/updates/joint-conservation-wolf-advisory-group-statement

http://www.conservationnw.org/news/updates/lethal-removal-of-profanity-peak-wolves-unfortunate-but-part-of-state2019s-wolf-management-policy

Note that CNW also supported the wolf cull in BC to protect caribou, to much outrage from some of the group's members.
Right- CNW has really been pretty reasonable on wolf issues lately.  They are a good buffer between the groups that want all wolves gone and the ones that freak out when control actions are proposed.

The wolf groups really have no choice or they lose all credibility. They signed onto this wolf advisory group and have made it even harder to remove depredating wolves, if they go back on the deal they made to remove wolves they would lose all credibility. Make no mistake, they still oppose killing any wolves or cougars, or any other predators, they are just playing good chess to stay in the game and try to keep the control they have.  :twocents:

How many years will the elimination of this pack cost the fake wolf delisting time prediction by WDFW?

That's a good point! I honestly have given up on Washington ever having meaningful predator management. It appears WDFW does not have the fortitude to stand up to the wolfers and the commission is slowly being stacked so that meaningful management will never happen.

yup - and they come off range lean, skinny and with a wild look in their eyes. 

Cattle sell by the $/lb and sell in brackets of quality, a lean skinny cow with a wild look in it's eyes not only weighs less, but also sells for less money per pound.
