Title: Do You Support Grizzly Bear Reintroduction?
Post by: jackelope on April 03, 2018, 09:53:41 AM: From Congressman Dan Newhouse R-WA 4th District

Quote
On March 23, Interior Secretary Zinke announced his support of Grizzly Bear Restoration efforts in the North Cascades National Park.

Reintroducing grizzly bears into the North Cascades National Park was originally proposed by the previous administration, and the issue re-emerged early in the 115th Congress. I have heard from constituents, local stakeholders, and elected officials, and I am concerned that there is an inadequate level of local community involvement in this decision.

An action as impactful as reintroducing grizzly bears into an ecosystem that is co-inhabited with people and livestock should only be made with sound science and with the support of the affected community members.

I want to hear from you:

Do you support reintroducing grizzly bears into the North Cascades?
( )Yes
( )No
( )Not sure

Take a minute and fill out the survey.

Post by: Stein on April 03, 2018, 11:29:16 AM: Not much of a survey anyway, yes or no with no additional details or qualifiers.
Title: Re: Do You Support Grizzly Bear Reintroduction?
Post by: Skyvalhunter on April 03, 2018, 11:30:31 AM: All you need is a NO right? :chuckle:
Title: Re: Do You Support Grizzly Bear Reintroduction?
Post by: lewy on April 03, 2018, 11:31:37 AM: Another hell no! Last thing we need is another apex predator, plus crawling in a tent to go to sleep after seeing a grizzly near by is not my favorite thing to do, done it!
Title: Re: Do You Support Grizzly Bear Reintroduction?
Post by: NRA4LIFE on April 03, 2018, 11:42:33 AM: It didn't work for me either. I tried both Exploder and Google Chrome. But my answer is NO. We deer hunt not too far from there and that's all I need is to worry about a 1200 lb bear wanting my deer more than me.
Title: Re: Do You Support Grizzly Bear Reintroduction?
Post by: Timberstalker on April 03, 2018, 11:48:54 AM: I cannot wait to see the 1200 lb bear!

And I do not support this, one bit.

That would be fun.
