Helicopters and Wolves
« on: February 11, 2019, 09:35:12 PM »
Good buddy of mine just south of Chewela has elk bedded down tonight 30 yes from his house.  One cow raido collared.    Pack of wolves howling.  This morning he sees a radio collared wolf.   Just called me.   Helicopter buzzing his house.  WTF?

wolves are hungry, so WDFW has to haze the Elk out away from houses so the wolves can feed.

hazed, scattered elk are easier for wolves to hunt than a herd held up in town, plus it helps keep the wolves out of town and off livestock.

In archery we have something like the way of the superior man. When the archer misses the center of the target, he turns round and seeks for the cause of his failure in himself.

I'm guessing some one spoke out of turn  since there are no longer any comments about why the helo was in the area.
