Money for Wolf Management

[wraithen]

The way this state spends money the 355k will be gone before you know it. 

WRONG! It's prolly already spent

[Fowlweather25]

It was probably gone before they got It! It was probably a bailout!

The department stated in public meetings the price would be a minimum of $500,000.  From other states experience the cost will be $2 to 5 million.  Effective program?  Where did we find these people?

[Fowlweather25]

Exactly! Why are they thinking that they are more efficient than other states that have already succeeded? Wdfw doesnt know management from a whole in the ground! I'm not saying there arent great opportunities to harvest respectable critters in this state cause I've done it but I am saying that other states are better at managing, have more quality animals and charge less for their residents to hunt? So essentially were paying more for less and have to deal with wolves that we can't manage effectively!

The governor has not released it to them yet.       it seems useless to share something positive. I'll just keep it to myself  from now on.

I don't want even a single penny of my hunting or fishing license fees to be going toward WDFW's mismanagement of wolves.  So, that may be good news that they are requesting money, however, what I need to know before I decide to purchase a 2012 hunting or fishing license is: how much money from my license fees will go toward wolf mismanagement? 

In other words, is the money they are requesting in addition to other funds they already are using???.......I would think so.........but I don't know???

Hope you don't mind but, I stole this and plastered it all over the WDFW facebook page

The only way I would want my money going towards wolf management is if it's to supply more paper so I can get a printed wolf tag! That way we can do the managing! Until then the wolves are doing a great job at OVER managing our deer and elk herds!
