Are these decisions and discussions televised?

Pain is temporary, achieving the goal is worth it.

I didn't say it would be easy, I said it would be worth it.

Every father should remember that one day his children will follow his example instead of his advice.

Legal action needs to be taken, they have failed to meet the requirements of their positions.

Many of them caved. At least two. Unbelievable

Petition to reinstate spring bear was voted down and petition to change cougar and bear season was approved

Not only approved but amended to let’s set the new rules later instead of just rolling the rules back to 2018 rules they gave themselves the ability to make the rules whatever they want

Two week season or a quota of two cats per PMU. Literally whatever they want.

Or they could pull a spring bear and just choose not to set the rules at all.  They're using some of the shadiest tactics they can to abuse what should have been a good system.

There were two different petitions. Once they voted down spring bear I knew there was no chance when the approved rolling back cougar and bear to 2018 rules that they would keep spring bear in those rules but I assumed they would just remove the two bear east side rule and switch it to one bear like it used to be and reduce cougar quotas to what they were in 2018. Now I’m nervous they are going to cut even deeper.

Here we go, will need to cut deer and elk opportunities soon, they will now be considered essential food for underprivileged predators, just like salmon have become the preferred food for orcas.

How are you seeing the vote? The only video I could find was the public comment part from this morning.
