There is a series of public meetings coming up for this. I would want to hear the case for why NPS and FWS think this is a good idea. The burden on them should be to make the case FOR it rather than just force the rest of us to voice objection. Of course there will be many showing up, especially on the west side, who would think this is a grand idea.

The public open houses will be held from 6-8 p.m. at the following locations:

Cle Elum – February 13 at the Putnam Centennial Center
Cashmere – February 14 at the Riverside Center
Winthrop – February 15 at the Red Barn
Omak – February 16 at the Annex Facility at Okanogan County Fairgrounds
Bellingham – February 21 at the Bellingham Technical College
Darrington – February 22 at the Darrington Community Center
Sultan – February 23 at the Sultan High School
Renton – February 24 at the Renton Community Center

Why the hell can't they just continue to protect the existing bears and let them spread on their own why bring more in.

Let nature decide how many will be there.  The last thing we need is the feds managing recovery.

As far as having the critters in the wild, I don't care either way. If they are there and have migrated in from somewhere by natural means, so be it. It just really chafes my hide that the government thinks they know what's better and uses our tax money to make some point.
I'm guessing that with the new sheriff in town, whoever he puts in charge of this, will have the wisdom to stop this before money gets distributed. But that WON'T happen unless enough of us speak up. I plan to attend at least one or more of the meetings. Anybody else?

This is so they can say they held public meetings, then they do what they want anyway.

exactly!!!! I've been to a couple meetings in the past, you certainly feel like they've already decided on whatever your there to talk about.  Frustrating
