Every study done by wdfw is agenda driven....... Private, unpaid studies may have different outcomes than predictable wdfw studies.

A few years back here on HW I said that wolves will drive elk out of traditional cover and people will see them more often in non-traditional areas, it'll appear like there's more elk than ever when in reality there's fewer Elk, just that the wolves are driving them out in the open more and they'll come into town. 

I got ridiculed by our resident HW pro-wolf advocacy group, but seems like I may have been right (again).

 :chuckle: The wolfers have pretty much backed off, too many of our predictions about wolves are proving true!


My favorite:

"wolves will make you a better hunter"

 :yeah: usually followed up with a statement that "sure they wont just stand out in the open looking at you anymore" but the GOOD hunters will still get their elk :chuckle: I don't remember elk standing out in the open looking at me ever! last two elk I killed were the easiest of my life because the wolves pushed them right to the edge of town! Its not right they are being forced into areas they don't really belong. Meanwhile great remote elk habitat is a ghost town for elk.

Let's go train some bird dogs, but first let's destroy 80% of our pigeons, less pigeons makes a better bird dog right?

Stop voting Democrat!!!!
Every major anti-gun piece of legislation since 1934 has been authored by the Democrats:
--- The National Firearms Act (NFA), (1934)
--- The Gun Control Act of 1968, (1968)
--- The Brady Violence Handgun Protection Act, (1993)
--- Every anti-gun law and initiative in the state of Washington, including I-594 & I-1639
--- and there will be more to come, believe it
If you are a Democrat, and have helped to vote Democrats into office, then you are complicit. You can bob and weave and duck and make excuses, but the Democrat Party in this country has a long history of making life difficult for those of us who believe that gun-ownership "shall not be infringed".

George HW Bush banned the import of foreign made 'assault rifles'.
Reagan signed the Hughes amendment.

Reagan didn't "sign" the Hughes Amendment.....it was added to the FOPA (Firearm Owner Protection Act) bill that Reagan signed.  William J. Hughes, an anti-liberty New Jersey Democrat, slipped in the amendment to FOPA, which was a bill designed to PROTECT gun owners.
