North Cascades Grizzly Reintroduction
« on: November 15, 2022, 09:31:47 AM »
Well they’re at it again. First virtual meeting is today at noon.

Here is the link for the meeting:
https://parkplanning.nps.gov/MeetingNotices.cfm?projectID=112008

Some news:

https://www.q13fox.com/news/feds-resume-study-of-restoring-grizzlies-to-north-cascades


If you are able to comment, please do. Main points to mention are the lack of prey animals to support a population of grizzlies and that things have changed drastically since they used to be here. We have a population close to 8 million in this state. People are mauled and killed by grizzly every year in the lower 48 and if they bring them back they’ll be liable for any loss of human life.

The Commission doesn't care about human life. They only care about Carnivores and if hunters or people get hurt, they just don't care. They think out of the box, if hunters can't hunt they think hunters will give up their guns because of no hunting. They don't understand that hunting is a privilege and owning guns is a right. They are for Tyranny!  Hunting is good for getting good food for the table and good for the economy.  Hunters kill their food and none hunters pay someone else to kill their food.  I guess the Liberals want people to be vegans and eat bugs.

The Commission doesn't care about human life. They only care about Carnivores and if hunters or people get hurt, they just don't care. They think out of the box, if hunters can't hunt they think hunters will give up their guns because of no hunting. If hunters have no reason to hunt they will take their guns by force. They don't understand that hunting is a privilege and owning guns is a right. They are for Tyranny!  Hunting is good for getting good food for the table and good for the economy.  Hunters kill their food and none hunters pay someone else to kill their food.  I guess the Liberals want people to be vegans and eat bugs.

Fixed that for ya!

The funny thing is, most of the rank and file granola eating hikers are opposed to grizzly reintroduction. They're scared to death of them. Due to this fact alone I kind of like the idea.

Well at the end of the day,we as hunters are gonna pay for grizzly ,Wolf,and more conservation.

Although these new acts from Congress sound great.
It's also bidden draining our Pittman funds.

It's all in the bigger plan to end hunting and finding ways to fund it. They are already amending stuff at the federal level to acomadate hunting ending.

Just more Democrat big spending,spending Pittman funds that we don't have. 2020 and 2021 Pittman brought in 1 billion each year ,this new America wildlife act is gonna spend 1.3 billion a year. How long do you think we have before the Pittman funds are just gone.
5 years,10 years, They will give Pittman funds +21 million a year to Washington. Pittman funds pay for hunters ed and such it will only be 5-10 years before all Pittman funds go to the restoring America's wildlife act.

Like said these bills sound good at first look,but the end result will be bad for hunters and fishing.
All part of the bigger plan. To end hunting ,using Pittman funds,by spending more money each year than Pittman brings in a year. Draining the funds.
RAWA You'll hear WDFW and our Commission refer to it.
Will pay to reintroduce grizzly and pay for there protection.
Along with a bunch of other predators.
Step 1 ,drain the funds.
Step2,make sure all Pittman funds go to non game species.
Step3,end hunting.
Truth or dare ,you tell me?

https://conservationnw.org/our-work/wildlife/recovering-americas-wildlife-act/

https://www.congress.gov/bill/117th-congress/senate-bill/2372#:~:text=This%20bill%20provides%20financial%20and,list%20species%20under%20such%20laws.

The fact that all the conservation org that stoped spring bear hunt support it,should throw some red flags.

There are enough Grizz in Washington now that one ought to pay attention when out stomping in the woods, and not just in the NE corner.

Maybe it's a way to increase those tax revenues.  Introduce grizz and suddenly more people will go out and buy guns, then they have more tax money to spend. :bdid:

 :yeah:
We started seeing grizz in the Alpine lakes in the late 90s.
WA bio we brought pictures to told us not to tell anyone.

No reintroduction needed. They'll come and go as they please.
