Yakama Nation Sheep Tags

[trophyhunt]

And I've said this before, but what we need to do is to adopt the Yakama tribe's hunting regulations for us, in the areas that they hunt. Problem solved.

No spike only elk season, no 3 point minimum on deer, no limits on number of animals harvested per hunter, and a year around season for bucks/bulls.

They should at least be able to enforce hunting rights to those that are 100% Indian. Over the years it seems like they continually lower the amount Indian you have to be to get hunting privileges. If it was held to 100% I’d be willing to bet they’d breed themselves out of hunting rights.

They do?

The Nooksack Tribe is doing the opposite.  Actively trying to remove members who aren't up to their "standards"

I’m pretty sure none of the tribes require 100% to have hunting rights. I can’t remember the amount I last heard but it was substantially lower. I’d be curious to hear a tribe member let us know what the current requirement is.

It varies per tribe. Different tribes also have different laws and required documentation.

Not to hijack the thread but how many sheep tags does the Nez Perce tribe allot for rams in the Blue Mountains

Sounds to me like we CAN work together. I think these are interesting ideas.

I did some reading and it looks like to be a member of the Yakama tribe you have to be 25% Indian. So that means you can be 3/4 like the rest of us that have to abide by the state rules but that 1/4 gets you unlimited hunting and fishing. That just seems crazy to me.

[shallowforks]

Maybe not invest future recources into these conflict areas until we can make a resolution. Its a very good point that the state took it upon itself to manage for trophy quality over opportunity and why does the tribe have to subscribe to that? Its our own fault. Same with the sheep. They have rights to hunt the land and any species on it. State should have figured that out before introducing the herd. Only recourse now is to look at options for the future. If its to let the herd fail and strike an agreement before any reintroduction so be it.

Also who cares about the stipulations on how much native one needs to be to get hunting rights. Thats their rules, their system, none of any non tribal members business. If they inducted someone who is zero native, its their tribe they can do what they want. Focus energy on the cards in ones hand instead of complaining about the other hands at the table.

Can you be my guide for this unit?
