ONCE wolve made a kill on next livestock will be SHOT so soon Scott Fitkin will better confirmed wolves did this.
I am postive those rancher won't get cited for shoot wolves right afte livestock are killed.
State law allowed us we must protect our animals and our children and our rancher. We pay tax on property. Don't even think u can control us and allow wolves eat some of ours.
I heard they all ranchers are totally angry today. Whoa..... And most rancher totally disagree with scott fitkin. So am I. After 3 newspapers
Game are ON.
Oh by the way how do we know it was coyote or dogs or anything. We will shoot right there and here ur evidence.
Good luck.

I agree that we should have the right to do that.

Just because an animal is dead in wolf country does not mean wolves killed it (though it's always a possibility) there has to be some evidence that can make it seem legit. It sounds like the chicken killing incident may or may not have been a wolf...who knows if it was a coyote, or a neighbors dog? I don't blame Scott Fitkin for asking the questions...that's his job.
Why don't some of you ask to volunteer for a day? I bet a day in the field with a bio would be helpful. Who knows- if nothing else you have an audience for your stance on wolves. Maybe there would be some useful dialogue.

I'd have to agree with you. Should be tracks or something to support claim. With all the hype, everyone is seeing wolves today. Lots of chickens have died from Coyotes or the neighbors dog. It very well could have been one though. They are certainly in the area and aren't going to turn down a free snack. She's kind of an idiot for "baiting" them though.

I am not sure about it being a right to protect livestock, I am a afraid the poor unsuspecting rancher would be in trouble with wolves listed right now. Remember, only the eastern 1/3 of WA was downlisted by the feds.

I'm not sure what the law reads. I know you better not shoot a red tailed hawk in your chicken pen, and I would think a wolf trumps that in regards to jail time.
