Title: 113 wolves
Post by: WABONEHNTR on August 07, 2013, 02:41:01 PM: Here are a few wolves from my Trailcams. I really hate what these things have done to the elk and moose populations in PO county. Pretty sad.

I was up there 2 times last year trying my luck out. You wanna share where your trail cameras are near ? PM me if you want. I was told that Jack Pine Flats south of Coolin was where they were seeing them last year. I only saw a black bear.

Unfortunately at 2% success, it's not as easy as some may think it is.

I know it is a long shot. I go every year, and have yet to harvest one. We have come close though :) However, it is a great excuse to get out in January and February. Love being in the woods, and sooner or later one will bite the dust.

:yeah:

:yeah: We need all the wolf photos and sightings reported as possible so we can eventually get these critters delisted.

Post by: WABONEHNTR on August 09, 2013, 09:25:18 PM: They don't care about 113 wolves. They don't even count towards the pack count. They dont count because they are shared with idaho. There has to be 2 established packs on the westside before anything can happen. So they either transport them to St. Helens and the coast or we wait for them to walk there. Rumor is is that they will move one of the teaneway packs to St. Helens.

Post by: bearpaw on August 10, 2013, 12:16:39 PM: Yes, it's obvious WDFW doesn't care how many wolves are in eastern WA, however, laws could be changed by legislators if they have the evidence to support a change in the laws. As far as wolves go it's very apparent the WDFW doesn't care what happens to our herds in E WA, the legislators are our only hope. Shameful the way predator management has gone. Basically, WDFW refuses to manage predators.

Thanks for posting your photos, I think it really helps to get as many photos out there as possible. :tup:
