Interesting....the projects the Dept. Biologist talks about were a big waste of time and money.  The reason....no freakin common sense applied.  Just wasted thousands of dollars on decisions made by people in the WDFW who don't have a clue.  Sad

The WDFW are also going to conduct a 2 year study to figure out why the elk herd in the Colockum has a poor bull to cow ratio.  I cracked that nut in less than a month.  Using their own research.  But I'm sure that million dollars will go to a good cause. :bash:

My hats off to mark it takes allot to dedicate youself, to help a cause you believe in.The problem is why are we as hunters footing the bill to feed these animals that we buy tags to hunt.WDFW should realize that when the resource is gone,they wont be selling any more tags for hunting or fishing.I will posting some photos of these elk later to show everyone what shape our resource is in.
