This is as pathetic as it gets. Another benefit based on skin color? I thought we are pushing hard these days for racial equality, not segregation? Since when has the bighorn sheep ever been native to the Swakane? Also, how has the YN ever helped in manage or support these rams they now seem to be entitled to? Hopefully some WSF members chime in.
 Seems to me a lot of hard work just got pissed away........ :dunno:

If you read the comments above, it sounds like this has been around for awhile.

If they're not native, I would think the push would be to eliminate them.

Many of the tribes at this point are partners in wildlife conservation, despite past transgressions from specific tribal members.  Ex:  There is no denying what members of the Muckleshoot have done in past decades, but their current wildlife bios are doing a great job identifying problems with local deer herds and helping to craft policy for their members to help out.  Right now, the tribes are our best shot at predator management. 

Lastly, I haven't heard anyone marching to eliminate current treaties with native tribes.

Dude.  Dial it down a bit.  Life will never be fair.  Relax and be happy that we have access to thousands of acres of public land.

I'm far more concerned about the nets on the west side, the predators on the east side, and the lack of judicial respect for wildlife laws statewide than the YN taking a few sheep that they're entitled to take.

Do you really know what you're even talking about? Since when have they been "entitled" to Swakane sheep and who from WDFW made this decision?

WDFW doesn't have the signing authority for treaties.

Yakama sheep harvests are 0 interest because Treaties nor there interpretation are going to change.

If WSF and WDFW introduced a new species, or species location on ceded land and that species is hunted, tribes have a right to that species equal to non-tribal.
People get offended at nothing at all. So, speak your mind and be unapologetic.

I would surely hope they have some say beings they have managed the sheep there since their arrival. If  this is in some treaty that you guys believe, then why are they just now introducing these sheep tags up north?

Mine was a legit question. I have no idea if they have a say in anything the tribes do.

If I went down today and killed a Swak ram,  a WDFW officer would arrest me. I think WDFW has some say on what gets killed.
