Hunters banding together
kodiak06:
Just curious how many individuals are willing to get out in public and be seen and heard as HUNTERS? After the regs are printed, if the winter feed programs are to be continued all the hunters should gather at every WDFW office across the state and be seen and heard. If CWD is such an issue for them to make such an ignorant state wide ban, the winter feeding would prove there was more than the herds health considered in that state wide ban. I'd be willing to jump over and hang out from the Oregon side. If everyone could agree on a date, at least some attention would be drawn to the issue, I bet the media would show up.
WoolyRunner:
I agree! Let’s do it.

Good Idea....If they feed elk...I feed deer... can you imagine CWD going through an elk feeding station or all feeding stations. Gosh , I guess it's not that bad of a problem... The ban if for hunting only....not grandma giving Bambi a couple pieces of bread whenever.
How about we all get together and throw a ton of sweet feed on every WDFW office.Or have a ceremonial DAY of FEEDING and get together and travel around throwing feed where you have hunted in the past. Can't get us all. Yes, I am done with their crap. How do we know the State didn't introduce a little CWD here (kinda like introducing wolf)??? Slow ,sick ,or dead deer make for great wolf food. Less deer ...equals less hunters ....equals less guns.
I'd show up with other outdoors people. Who and how do you propose putting this together??
Question....If a deer steals some of my farm animal food is that intentionally feeding deer?

Make a lawsuit against the state for spread of CWD at feed stations. Come on animal rights groups! Where are you now? Yip doesn’t fit the agenda.
Tbar:
The issue is critical habitat is prioritized for agriculture. End the supplemental feeding and have a massive herd reduction maybe to the point of ending hunting in the Yakima herd. It'll only take one winter like 96 to be the end. So band together as hunters to end hunting? Sounds brilliant!
