What is WDFW’s roll in this? Unless I missed it, you don’t even have to be a Wa resident.
Just tend your own and live.

One of my customers is a non hunter but has spent more time hiking the Olympics than anyone I know. He has his wife drop him off on one side and he hikes to the other side for fun. He would be an awesome guide and support. If someone is serious I can talk to him about it.

Lawsuits may stop it but so far all the relocation stuff has happened.  The project is definitely a go unless some court stuff stops it.

I'm planning on going in there with a Nemo Omen and shooting everything white that moves.
Kindly do not attempt to cloud the issue with too many facts.

After my first goat years ago,  I really wish I could use my bow on the next.   Better start practicing at 200 yards!   :chuckle:

Removing these goats has never made sense to me but with that said this is the second most sensible thing the Park has decided to do along with the capture and transplant. I am all for sportsmen/women/hunters being involved as management tools in this project. It looks like they did their homework on being as informative as possible about how tough a hunt this will be and getting serious experienced applicants. I hope everyone keeps this positive as its one of the few positive things we have had in this state especially hunting related in awhile with all the closures and uncertainty. .Could be a cool opportunity for the right people..

I just hope anything that gets killed up there gets packed out and used...I hate to see goat's just left for the scavengers. Black eye for hunter's.
