"Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife shared that the annual wolf report for 2019 revealed the minimum count of wolves continued to grow for the 11th year."

I'm surprised they are admitting growth. And I see their numbers are still way under reality. IMO

That's part of the reason the math doesn't male sense. 11 years of every breeding pair having an average of 5-8 pups adds up really fast. Even with mortality one could surmise that the number of wolves in Wa is a few hundred more than they will admit.

Just like everything else to do with any thing the government does. They twist the facts and figures to meet thier intended agenda.
I don't believe anything that comes out or thier mouth and reports.

Second time we have had pics on our property in two years.  Sister had one on camera about 6 miles away too.  Not uncommon at all with the growing population.
