Is this a flat out lie?

Wolves were already in Colorado on their own there too before they were trucked there.

Interesting that the initiative to move the wolves to Colorado was approved by voters almost 3 years ago with a deadline of 12/31/23. Why’d they wait till the last minute?  Ballot box biology is a crappy process either way.

Here are their names,   They want to trcuk 5 more there by March.   Its interesting that a bunch came from the 5 points pack which happens to be the one where they had all the livestock depredation trouble with and that they nuked 4 from earlier this year, 3 females and a male.   Oregon said they'd do their best not to send any of the trouble wolves. :chuckle:

THey seem rather efficient at trapping them and relocating them.  I wonder if they have had much practice. :tinfoil: :peep: :chuckle:

I just don't see how they could keep it quiet.

Maybe I'm just naive, but how in the world do you do all that would be required to relocate wolves without being detected?   I don't think they could pull that off.

Focusing on other predators species, it is interesting that Lynx, Wolverines and Fisher have not shared the same success stories as the wolf even though these species have all been released here in Washington


For clarity's sake there have been no wolverine reintroductions in Washington and the lynx reintroductions being done by the Colville Tribes are on their 3rd year, which is hardly enough time to evaluate the success of that effort.

I was going to say something along these lines but don't really want this going in that political direction.  However the government whether it's WDFW or otherwise are pretty dang good at hiding things from the public.

Just watched this old video on wolves on YT.
It says they came here on there own.
Of coarse you can't always believe everything on the Internet.

Unless someone can post something that proves different.
The truth is just what ya believe.

The part I find misleading is the wolves are coming here Now from other “states, provacinces.
I say NE Washington is a wolf hatchery. Raising wolves that instead of dispersing to other regions of Washington. The coast, Columbia basin, are dispersing to good wolf habitat: BC and Idaho. (And with help probably Colorado soon)
At F4WM Wolfer summit last summer a fellow from BC gave a presentation. 3rd generation predator control business up there. Very informative.
He trapped a wolf 300 miles +- north of the border. That wolf had a collar on. It had been collared just north of Spokane. He had a map showing everywhere that collar had pinged before he stopped it. Black wolf. He said he knew it was different gene pool before he saw the collar as had different fur color/quality than his black wolves. He caught three more in the area with the same fur gene.


Why would 4 wolves travel 300+ miles north of where they were collared? Could it be they were looking for their home from where they were trapped and then relocated somewhere in Wa. State?  I think it is totally feasible.

I would say with the proper funding I could easily transport wolves to new areas without being noticed.  You just need a veterinarian who is sympathetic to the cause to work with you and you have it made.
