Stop believing all that they say
Is it expected that they would know exactly how many wolves are in WA? They always seem to say “at least”
It doesn’t matter how many there are, the same groups will want more.
P-man- Are you saying you are of the opinion that they should know exactly how many wolves are in the state?
Always have been since the start. We have/had the most biased group of Bio's and decision makers ever known. I have personally sat at behind close doors Region 1. Disrtict 1 meetings and witnessed it. All the way back when the Bio's were concealing den site location from the law enforcement who were responding to calls. Most of that agency is one deceptive chit show. I saw 24 years of it. I've attended employee "regional meetings" in Region 5,6 and 1. They were always brain washing and heavy petting events for the upper management. The buzz word at every one of them was "constituents". Total politics in play on this subject....I remember before I was fired they claimed 206 wolves and 33 packs. Do the math at 4-6 viable pups per female and tell me their not snow balling the public. Their deception even worse on cats.... Ask the deer and elk bio out of colville why she has predator track tats up and down her arms.

Id think so, I had a 85yd encounter with a pack of 13 wolves this deer season, really cool experience. no collars on any of the wolves.
The commission and WAG will never believe that the numbers are as high as they are. Pushing the goal posts anyhow.
Maybe they will open a trapping season for you guys, I'd love to see someone try and get one in a box trap sorry not funny... But reality do you think you guys could see them creating a draw hunt for wolves giving out just a couple tags a year?

I head last night that they are offering rewards for information on the killing of 3 wolves. 2 in klikitat county and 1 in okanogan county. Something like 22 wolves have been killed illegally that they know about in the last few years. Sounds to me the like the population is plenty strong enough to support a hunting season.

Wonder if the the two WDFW “scientists” that killed the wolf while collaring it by overdosing it in the Okanogan last winter got a just reward for their incompetency’s.Or were they successful in deflecting the killing toward someone else.
