Uh, what led you to think I was homosexual? Because although I'm not homophobic and think gay's should have the same rights as everyone else, I'm not into dudes(I thought you were a chick, BTW). I BE horrible at being gay. I gag just from hocking a loogie! Hahahaha!

                                                  It's official.  Humanure is gay.

It's official x2

Ah, simple mispell, but hilarious nonetheless. Has been corrected.

  Thanks Hirsey for directing this important topic back to were it belongs, I watched the documentary and was startled at the number of wolf pups that were documented in the Teanaway, that must  have been filmed last summer, that also means that pack  has almost  doubled since then. I spend a lot of time hiking and hunting in the valley and can confirm that the deer populations have been decimated, just ask any local farmer, the deer that are surviving are staying low in the valley floor, not venturing very far, The concern that I have is that true mule deer are taking a heck of a hit with the introduction of wolfs in an already fragile environment,  that hasn't truly recovered from the harsh winter kills from the mid 70s, with wolf recovery well on its way, what price are we ultimately paying. How can a person defend the argument that a healthy wolf pack comes from the eradication of other wildlife populations. We also have a growing moose population in the Teanaway, question for the wolf lovers, what makes your wolf pack any more important than the newly established moose immigrant's?

[humanure]

None is more important than the other. The moose has a place in the ecosystem just as the wolf, the coyote, the elk or the owl.

You act as if the pack can survive if the herds are decimated. As the herds dwindle, so does the pack. Wolves die for various reason quite often. Starvation, parvo, injuries from fighting and hunting, parasites and worms leading to a weakened immune system, etc. Most pups from a wolf litter don't survive.

I have watched it and thought it was nothing more than a liberal leaning sales pitch for wolves. They put locals in a bad light and made it look like wolves might not make it in Washington. Wolves are actually spreading repidly in Washington, so I give it a 1 on a scale of 1 to 5 as far as being a factual unbiased documentary.

Not to forget that was expected.  I watched it when you posted it.  What it exposed about wdfw lying should be looked at.  There science is conducted by pro woofers and its bias.  Elk herds and deer herds estimates high and wolf counts way low.  It's only getting worse.  Until they are legal to hunt there is no management that's effective.  The wolfs were in California when this was made.  So there all over Washington.
