I think PREDATORS   as a whole all of them have a roll but am I the only one who sees more landowners saying no more ,  or charging un realistic fees for access . Also they say  there is less hunters but certain areas I hunt I feel there are alot more hunters and some areas I hunt there gone . I do think we need to get a handle on the predators I try my hardest to harvest every one I see . Dunno. That was a good read though more people need to read it

It's not a problem in the areas I hunt.  I think the anger and frustration it produces outweighs the actual impact on the overall populations.

I stopped watching Portlandia and no longer go to Portland because of the huge wolf problem there

 guess if you live in a progressive urban area, where wolves don't reside, it aint a problem. The non hunting progressives in Seattle feel the same and want more wolves in eastern Washington.

You think.........right.     If you dont live and hunt where there ARE wolves then you dont know the impact.  Period.  We are beyond anger and frustration and those who arent experiencing the problem first hand,  cant possibly understand it.
That was my response to the comment about native hunting being left off my list. Not wolves.
I listed out many of the things that I believe impacts my hunting opportunities.  I included cougars and wolves.

I must be missing something. I don't hunt in Portland.
I said, YES in my first post and listed a bunch of other things that I feel are influencing my opportunity to hunt in addition to wolves and cougars.  And when someone mentioned I left off 'unregulated native hunting', I responded that I didn't think it (native hunting) was a problem where I hunt.
