For your reading pleasure........

This article is a year old and Fred Koontz resigned not to long after this meeting if I recall correctly.

Material isn’t outdated.  Just another example of where it is all headed.   They aren’t even trying to hide their agenda.

Yep, the new direction is that nature will take care of itself provided humans stay out.  No management necessary except to keep humans from leaving the city.  In fact, human management is a huge part of the problem in their mind.

If we think it's bad now, just wait until we get the new commissioners.

It won't balance, predators will find it easier to kill domestics as herds become smaller, and smarter.

Already there.   Two legged bags of water are also pretty easy to bring down

Yes, a year out of date and if you wrote it today all the numbers would be lower.  No natural elk in the SE blues, man has changed everything there and the forest service dropped, maybe burnt, the ball decades ago.  There natural plan ends it all with a flurry of nasty as things come apart.

I've sent my Inslee letter to them to see if they publish it. I hope they do.
