Friday's Commission vote on WOlves and Cougar

[Tbar]

Yawn, shooting cats if seen. Done

Great comment.   

Just more anti-hunting industry fodder.  They lurk in here... and pull comments and quotes from hunters to use right back against us.

While I see your point, no amount of cheerful positive, or lack of negative, comments will right this ship. It's sailed in this state and is only a matter of time before it's all gone. Washington will never turn red, you'll never have the right people in WDFG.

Negativity differs from willful disregard for law and policy with a yawn.

I'd say allot of negative or poor form comments actually align with science.

Are we supposed to stay in line and play nice with a corrupt commission that creates rules based on feelings and agenda's....and if so for how long..

Too each their own but have situational awareness if you believe all is not lost.  I believe there is still something to fight for.  One negative comment will get more press from the opposition than dozens of well constructed and articulate comments.  I get the frustration but continue to invest time and resources to change our preserve. I  am very pessimistic in regards to the current situation with the policy makers but I'm in it for the long game,  good bad or indifferent.   

There's always something to fight for. Always has been always will be..but.
Unfortunately we are fighting the decision makers that have made up their minds before any science or well constructed response crosses their desk...
You can't reason with unreasonable people.
I've been fighting for 40 years in this state and not really gaining any ground.
I'll keep doing what I'm doing.....but...I have zero faith that being reasonable and taking the high road will get WA sportsman anywhere..
But I digress... before they take away my moose tag

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again it’s gonna take a couple of people or kids getting grabbed and mauled or worse then they might decide to restrict a few things like someone said earlier. Remember, we are boot hunting cougars. It’s not like we’re running hounds.

I'm seeing posts all the time from folks-mainly women-up in the Chelan/Manson area regarding many sightings of cougars on doorbell cams and such.  I agree, one toddler stays on a swing a little to late in the evening, or one too many Juvenile Toms gets pushed down the hill.  I'm surprised it hasn't happened yet.  These folks are leaving food out for them and naming them etc.
