As I learned during the years of water wars with the government agency's in the Methow, once you bring up "predation" to the powers that be, their minds close like a steel trap, never to be reopened!!

Ya can't fix stupid,  I've seen it in action!! :o

I think our problem mirrors California's problems......Very good watch.  Very scary to see what the future hold if we don't get a handle on this.

Sheriff offices are a resource, at least the elected ones.  King county is appointed since 2020.  Meet with them, explain the problems.  Whether it is a turkey that will take out a three year old, a black bear that is never predictable, a grizzly that raids your coop, a cougar that took out a bike rider, a wolf pack that is destroying your livelihood or a raccoon with rabies, they need to understand.  Many have no experience and need a little help.  Thanks for the videos!!!

Sound familiar ?
