Lol“ Aimee Tallian poses in front of Pelican Valley winter base camp, where she and other members of her crew study wolf interactions....”.Not everything is a conspiracy. One of the luxuries of being a federal employee is being able to take temporary assignments all over the US, similar to how state employees bounce all over a state. There are federal game wardens from all over the US in Texas right now doing border enforcement, or are they??? Maybe the real reason is they're capturing wolves from Mexico and bringing them to their home states!

She's a public employee as well as being involved in a rescue operation which was reported by the news and investigated by the county sheriff. I don't see any parallel between her situation and someone taking part in an online forum. Just because you are part of a rescue operation doesn't mean your name needs to be plastered everywhere. As for the sheriff's "investigation" it's political and not legally based. There's no law that says the sheriff (or any LE agency) has to investigate what happened. The sheriff is simply going on along the "public safety" route, well there's no law that says you have to ID yourself when an agency is investigating something for "public safety" reasons.Heck, I'm sure she probably got cut up and may have some psychological issues from this, hello HIPPA protection.Well, that's what usually happens when the government has to spend thousands of dollars to go rescue someone out of the wilderness. Personally, I don't care who she is as long as we can get to the bottom of the story. That's where the rub is. Without knowing who she is, we're going to have a hard time pinpointing the responsible department and exactly what they were doing there and why they whisked her away before the local authorities had a chance to question her for information which could be used to keep locals safe. It certainly wasn't a salmon count and it was handled oddly.The department responsible for what?Here's the thing. Wolves are wild animals. They could be dangerous to people. So could bears. So could lions. So could raccoons. People shouldn't need to be told that. If you do, you might consider taking up a new hobby.

Im sure I’ll never draw a tag again. LolI posed the question on their Facebook open forum discussing their 30 million dollar debt. I wanted to know how much is spent on wolf recovery every year. Several others seconded the question. They refused to answer. @kirkl and I will probably be in the loser lounge forever.
Putin signed off on it...........Wait till MAGA finds out!

Not quite right there jack, I have run into several folks from different parts of the country who seem to think wolves don't attack people, they are shy timid creatures etc.. So you say the people shouldn't need to be told that there have been several human/wolf attacks. I bet WDFW are cheering you on right now, because they sure as hell haven't been honest with the public in that department either.Why doesn't the USFWS, WDFW report to the public about the wolf attacks where the wolf was shot, investigated and proven to be legit? Or even the reports of wolves following/stalking people in the Okanogan? They wouldn't be trying to hide the many wolf/human conflicts would they? Maybe keep the same BS stories they have told about the wolves being shy creatures in the forefront?We wouldn't be hearing about this story if it hadn't involved the sheriff office or DNR, it would be like all the others, hidden from the public. How long would it have taken to get a wolf pack confirmed if there wouldn't have been a 911 call of a wolf pack hanging out at a school buss stop? People had lost stock to the wolves, reported wolves in several different areas, and WDFW ignore all of them, except they couldn't get around the 911 call.Carry on jack, you'r doing just dandy....

There’s no telling what wild animal could attack with no warning. Before you know it you’ll be up a tree.
I’ve never been bitten by a chipmunk, but I know it’s possible so I’m on my toes. I keep my wits about me and never let my guard down. Never turn your back on them. They’ll take full advantage at any sign of weakness. Always keep a tree between you and them and you’ll be fine.
Sheriff Rogers (and others) has also deputized USFS and DNR LEOs in his county giving them countywide authority instead of authority just on their agency lands.It's amazing how many sheriffs portray themselves as "anti-fed" yet work with the feds all the time, including even deputizing them. Sheriff's are politicians, they know what they need to say to get elected.

This is so USFS can handle incidents on Forrest service campgrounds and such. NO DNR employees are commissioned under sheriff Rogers. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
