The goal is to end hunting for deer and elk
« on: December 26, 2018, 05:59:08 AM »
SPOKANE — Washington's wolf advisory group will look at increasing the populations of deer and elk to provide the predators with more food and reduce attacks on livestock.

For at least the past thirty years I've been following the nonsense the Department of Predator Propagation has been spewing.

I’ve been talking about that for years with my hunting pals and aquatintances. Funny thing I’m not seeing as much eye rolling from them like I used to.

I think this just means we all need to become much more proficient at predator hunting, even if we can't touch wolves. If we can drastically reduce the cat and coyote numbers that may help offset the increased pressure.

There's many that want to end the consumption of all meat.

If a conservative doesn't like guns, they don't buy them. If a lib doesn't like guns, they don't want anyone to have them.

If a conservative doesn't like hunting, they don't hunt. If a lib doesn't like hunting, they don't want anyone to hunt.

Same applies for many things

This concept is probably about the dumbest I've seen come from them.

Apparently there are so many deer in the NE Corner that they're switched to any buck/any deer for rifle/others.

But we need more??

I and many other have been saying this since before the adoption of the outrageous wolf plan.

Wolves will decrease their livestock depredations when we start killing them while depredating on livestock. They needed to be delisted years ago and will fear man only when we give them a reason to do so.

I think its a great approach - increased game through habitat and predator management is good for all as long as hunting opportunities are managed positively .

Any chance Washington can follow suit with other states and make Hunting a right and not a privelage???  This would ensure that politicians or environmentalist cannot take it away.
