Washington better learn from Idaho

[Rockholm66]

It is imperative Washington Outdoors-men wake up. Right under your noses, the enemy is going to unleash the most devastating biological weapon Washington has ever seen. The Illegally introduced Canadian Grey Wolf will wipe out your Elk, moose, and deer. You will have nothing left but memories to share with your children.

Learn from Idaho, and Montana. If you simply look at what has happened to us, you will see our once great elk herds are on the brink of a predator pit.Yellowstone is void of ungulates. Washington is now the front line, and you must not think about your next hunting adventure until you spend some time fighting.Call every person you know, pool your recourses and come with us to the fight. Together we will stop this.

Please look at the link, and read it very carefully. http://wdfw.wa.gov/wildlife/management/gray_wolf/draft_plan/march2010_wolf_deis_peer_review.pdf

What are you talking about?  We are already over run with wolves from what I read on this site!

I haven't seen any wolves in W WA yet, hope I never do. If I do, I'll only see it once

Any? There's a *censored* load of them near Tenino

Thanks for the link Rock.  Interesting reading their critiques. Sadly though, it reminds me how little hunter opinions and rights matter in this wolf management process- makes me sick to my stomach.

It's really up to us to decide how much our rights matter. Unfortunately or fortunately that's just the way it is. So either we get organized or we don't and just play the card we are delt by others we don't have our interests in consideration, positive consideration anyway

Sooooo, let's see:

1) We do not have a solid and uniform opinion (yet) that can bring us to the course of action...
- Do we make our case that the Canadian Wolf as invasive species wrongfully introduced by Ed Bangs, Defenders, etc. - in conspiracy with Feds? However here is the catch - WDFW is not admitting that they have physically imported them, our wolves are overflows from ID and BC, so our position will only depend of what Idaho does in the future... If they eradicate their wolves on these basis, then we can just follow.
- Do we want to accept the fact they are here now, but fight to drastically reduce their number of 16 breeding pairs..? We need scientists on our side to work on data, along with activists...
- What would be the best way to present a Typeworm problem, and push it along with the above issues (cattle will be infected, along with domestic pets, meat industry will suffer, economy, etc...)

Now at last, I think that political name calling and usual conservative-liberal tit for tat will not help us here. We need every person on our side (certainly there are ones that will not dance per our music...), that we can get. We need to be very civilized in this fight as well. This is my  . Please don't bash me if I am not on the level here, but I am trying to help myself as well as everybody else to shape a state of mind before getting involved out loud. The better organization and platform - the better outcome will be.

Well I certainly don't believe hardcore scare tactics with dramatic words and short absolute sentences intended to strike fear into us hunters is any way to raise support and organization between us, but thats just me.
