Wolf Wars have moved to Washington

[Jack Diamond]

I believe after having discussions with a variety of WDFW personnel over the years that the WDFW does not care about outfitters ,Guides, Hunters or fishermen, or private landowners.
They always state that hunting and fishing are outdoor recreation activities , and should not be considered to be for human subsistence.
I believe that if I purchase a tag and license and put in the hard work I should expect a reasonable return on my investment. If I wanted an outdoor recreational opportunity then I'd just go to my regular job. Maybe I am not a sportsman, but I hunt for meat, and I fish for meat, am I always successful, hell no, but I go with the expectation that I could be successful. I do not believe I should have to compete with aliens 2 or 4 legged.  To use the language Reintroduction the WDFW offends my intelect.

AGH comp crashed on me while reading a great study and cant pull it from history. Basically it was a ecologist saying that reintroduction of a alpha predator absent for 70+ years is basically introducting a invasive species, because the habitat and animals have adjusted to not having it, and there is no natural predator prey cycle going anymore. any one else find this? if so please send me a link

i agree with this completely. but i feel that the government as a whole does not care. as hunters, outdoors men and women and gun owners i think our thoughts, concerns and voices have fallen upon deaf ears if we have nothing to hunt there will be no reason for us to own any weapons. they do not care about us but they want our money, for in the end we are paying for them to put the wolves  into this state. i had this post all thought out and just went blank so i will finish it latter

Again, the state is not putting wolves into this state. The wolves got here on their own. I don't want wolves here either. But we all need to keep our facts straight.

i was miss informed and kinda confused when i posted that. if we start bickering and fighting among our self's, then we have already lost and that is just what they want if we are busy fighting each other then we will be to busy to stand up to everyone alse and fight for what we believe in

Last one...Senate resource and environment hearing on house bill HB-343 in Boise Idaho, you can get a glimpse of what we are up against by listening to the DOW speak....crazy talk! Wolvies were all over!

HB-343 Passes In IDAHO

[Hockdo7]

One more sorry...just a glimpse of what we are up against, they are serving the liberal kool-aid at schools!

I hate hunters...

[rasbo]

I'm gonna hope that WFW is not condoning any SSS comments,and I hope the hunt-wa does not either..like it or not its against the law and does not help any cause.And if that kind of action is happening , I'm thinking the amount of breeding pairs might just get raised.
