Seattle is the last place they will go. All the cougar management areas around the Greater Seattle area have no quotas. That ought to tell you something about how the Department views predators around Seattle.
You guys better all start calling your REPS and SENATORS and tell them you don't want wolves! My legislator is doing his job, the only way we can get delisted in the NE is for western WA to have wolves. Maybe if enough of you complain to your legislators that you don't want wolves your legislators will pass something so we can manage wolves in Northeast WA.Make the calls or get the wolves!

It's been a while since I viewed the wolf plan but I have read the entire plan in the past and if I remember correctly we need at least three packs that produce surviving pups three years in a row in each area of the state, the westside is one area, I could be wrong but don't remember that there was a distinction that the Peninsula had to have wolves if the westside had three breeding packs for three consecutive years.
If you think documenting wolves on the relatively open east side is hard.... how do you think its gonna happen on tye wey side where it is THICK?Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G930A using Tapatalk

They are having celebratory drinks while we continue to argue. Symbolic bill that when it passes will set management statewide back decades. Fixing wrongs with wrongs has never been a model of success. This will eliminate the need to apply pressure where they are federally delisted, well because this is what the northeast (kretz) as well as the farm bureau asked for. Sad state of affairs and the non consumptive wolf advocates win! (Oh wait, Mitch is a hunter)
I think moving them west is the best thing we can do,spread the love around a bit. Hope it happens sooner than later.
