Quote from: bearpaw on August 07, 2011, 01:20:42 PMUpdate:The neighbors tell me the game warden came out to the guys house and said it definitely wasn't wolves. Not sure how he could tell days afterward, so I am very suspect of that statement, but that's the story in the neighborhood. So does that mean when they come back the guy can protect his dogs, some neighbors are thinking that statement makes it's safe to protect their pets and livestock. Sounds like to me. It's amazing how blatant their BS is getting....

wolves dont attack people in WA cause their numbers have not gotten high enough yet, just wait for the numbers to go up and the prey to go down then lets see what all is being attacked. I dont give it 3 years till someone is attacked.
The worst thing is that you can't protect your property against these wolves, they have more rights than the people.
All,I have said this in other forums. The only way to truly battle this idiocy is on the political front. Each and every person that reads and participates in these forums needs to write their representatives about these issues and the very real dangers that are developing. Present the facts, and then respectfully tell them that you expect them, as your representatives, to put the safety and welfare of people ahead of any predator regardless of its "endangered" status. People should not fear unjustified prosecution by local or federal government agencies by taking prudent and reasonable actions to protect themselves, their families, other people, or their property from attack by marauding and vicious predators that those same agencies have placed in our “ back yards”. Our representatives absolutely must act on our behalf and introduce bills that protect us, our families, and our property.Writing your representatives is very fast and easy (http://www.usa.gov/Contact/Elected.shtml). If you have time to write in this forum, you definitely have time to write your representatives to ask them for their help in battling these issues. It works, your message gets through, and your letters/emails do make a difference.

I bet it was swamp gas that made the coyotes look larger than they really were, or possibly a weather balloon that landed in the Kennel.
