Suicide

Must have had some dirt on the Clintons

The Canadians did it!

KF you might be onto something. When the WDFW first started tracking the population they refused to acknowledge any animal that crossed back and forth across the border the considered them a transit pack and didn't count towards their management goals.

I remember this last summer they eradicated the remaining members' of this pack.
But I also saw where a person on here posted during Spring bear a notification that the WDFW had live catch traps out and to call them if anyone came across a trapped animal and to keep your pets in your control while in the area.

Finally some good news about predators in Wa.

There is no one wedge pack, or any other pack for that matter, numerous wolves are scattered throughout our whole region!

Sounds like someone forgot to implement one of the "S's".

Just to clarify something else, today we are exactly where I said we would be with wolves 10 years ago! Today wolves have seriously depleted our moose herds, wolves ate the caribou into extinction, some ranchers have been run out of business, all our ungulates are struggling in the wolf infested areas, and we are still not hunting them in WA and probably never will.

Touche to all the wolf lovers that frequented this forum! I was exactly right!

We have a lot of new members in the last 5 years, thanks for joining, you missed a lot of the past discussions about wolves, but if you were to dig deep you can find those discussions, those of us who warned what would happen were spot on!

Anyone who provides information that helps lead to an arrest may be eligible for a cash reward of up to $7,500  (CNW) or bonus points for special permit hunting opportunities.

This was the third wolf mortality documented by WDFW in 2021. A report released earlier this year indicated the state’s wolf population increased by an estimated 33 animals in 2020, with fewer lethal removals due to wolf-livestock conflict.

Bonus points for wolf?  Now there is some motivation.

Points are so worthless.  They are so oblivious, even to their own system

[bearpaw]

There should be a wolf hunting season in place to keep the wolf population stable but prevent it from further growing on the eastside and there should be points awarded to every person who legally takes a wolf!

[Fl0und3rz]

That would be something.  But I honestly don't expect any leadership from WDFW on novel population control methods for predators.

Burning and looting a city, civil disobedience no arrests.  Shoot a wolf, prison.    These are the times we live in.

not so much the "times", rather the idiots electing other idiots into the pipeline....

  This right here is pathetic & true

Is it just me, but illegally shot wolves seem to be breeding females.

how else will they stir up emotions from these brain dead sheeple if they dont put that?!?

we need to cull about 90% of what is here, following idahos program.
 
the population only grew by 33 last year, ha! do these morons even get away from their desk long enough to look outside, let alone put boots on the ground and 'attempt' to do an honest count?!?

 glad to see they have money for wolf removal* rewards but cant fix a road in this state...carry on

In the culture that we have now. Perhaps that's how the wolf identified it self. 🤔🤔🤔
