Go Figure.

Its been leaning that way more and more for years. Back in the day just about every warden hunted, not any more

All the more reason for hunters and anglers to pay very close attention to the nominees for the open seat, and do everything we can to be certain that the person appointed has licenses to their name.

The previous commissioner, Jay Kehne of Omak, is a die-hard deer and elk hunter with some darn incredible High Hunt stories that I've had the pleasure of hearing. Given the other recent appointments (birder/hiker, policy expert, commercial fishing rep—all respectable additions, but not your average sportsmen or women), the current make-up of the commission, and Kehne's legacy of leadership on hunter issues like lighted nocks, banning transport of elk hooves with obvious hoof-rot, and roadkill salvage, it would be unacceptable to not have a hunter/angler fill that seat.

Kehne is also very pro wolf and has ties to Conservation Northwest.

 The cat is out of the bag now, that won't do any good. All they have to do is purchase a license each year, problem solved as far as WDFW and the Governor are concerned.
