Posted 2 hours ago in the wolf sightings group.  Still there.



Facebook doesn’t even allow animal sales anymore. Have to use creative wording without any words related to a sale or anything of the sort. No surprise they’d remove wolf smeared on the road pics.

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield

An over the road trucker once told me he would never turn the steering wheel to avoid an animal as his truck had an aluminum bumper and it may bend into the front wheel, jamb and then he would be unable to straighten out his rig.  Made sense to me.

I was taught by a drivers ed teacher who was also a WWII bomber pilot, "never swerve to miss an animal, you are more likely to be hurt or killed in the process, HIT the animal whatever it is!" :tup:

My scoutmaster swerved to miss a porcupine, rolled his car and wound up in the hospital for ten days.  Almost killed him,  once he recovered he told my dad, "yep, should have HIT it and kept on going, I'll never try and avoid HITTING another animal again!"

A little advice if you find yourself driving in Alaska, avoid hitting a moose at all cost! That being said, don't post dead wolf pictures on the internet with headings that say you're glad the wolf is dead. It gives the other side emotional ammunition
for people on the fence. Big lose for hunters.  :twocents:

The biggest loss to hunters was not stepping up and exposing the fraud, always being on defense do to the fear of some emotional backlash BS.

At this point, with the cat out of the bag, and the wolves fully infested in WA, hunting on the way out, does it really matter what the pro-wolf frauds say? Can anyone see any true wolf management in Washingtons future???

I wonder how many of the pro-wolf frauds will be pro-grizzly bear frauds now.

People in the middle with no strong feelings may be ok with a hunting season at some point. Trust me, people laughing about a wolf being smeared across the highway turn the middle off. Makes hunters look like idiots.. There are lots of logical reasons to control and hunt/trap wolves. Instead of acting like emotional nitwits like liberals we should be making a well thought out case for control. :twocents:

Did the poster say he was a hunter? Or is any thing considered negative by some, a reason to blame hunters?

 
I wonder if there are any people in the middle after 12 years worth of wolves? From what I have seen, they are either full blown fake environmental pro-wolfers or they know the other side of the coin, wolves are killing off the deer etc., taking your dogs on a hike isn't a good idea and packing in wolf country is a given.

 
The fact that you somehow think WDF&Wolves etc., give two cents on hunters " making a well thought out case for control" is hilarious.

And as far as wolf control, rural communities have been implementing and in some cases WDFW know. Taking care of wolves isn't a public secret anymore.

On another note, as the pro-wolfers like to point out "the wolves are here to stay so get use to it", at this point many people don't want to get use to it, and many of the people aren't hunters or ranchers.

This is a hunting forum. Scroll through the posts. If you don't think the wolf lovers spread what is posted here around the net you are living in a dream world.
In the end voters will determine the future of wolf management in Washington. All politicians will bend to the popular opinion to stay in power. Showing livestock killed by wolves is a winner for hunters. Showing a wolf splattered on the road and laughing about it is a loser. Pretty simple unless you are a fanatic.

Actually it's more then likely going to be the rural communities that will be able to do any meaningful wolf control, especially with WA being fully infested. . And if there is any change it more then likely won't come from a democratic gov., but instead because a wolf/wolves start killing a few people, that's when you will see some move towards management legal or not. Mech said the biggest threat to wolves once they were dumped in the states was not managing them, and public tide turned against them, that's where we are today whether you want to believe it or not.

I wave at all truckers, they deliver food, clothes, supplies and parts.  Cab lizards have a tough job and a simple wave may keep them going.  This guy gets a double wave
