theres no deer left for the hunters. this state should have a year round season on cats.
Speaking of cats. It only took a few hours after setting camera to get a bobcat. This spot is prone to cougars, bobcats, coyotes, and bears. 2 years ago it was loaded with elk. Now this last year since august it has been almost void of elk. So will see what it holds over next month or two on camera.

We have a WDFW problem.
It’s not a WDFW problem, it’s the commissioners in place that’s the main problem problem!! If you’ve attended, listened, or read the minutes of the past 3 years of commissioner meetings you will see that even the WDFW biologists have been pushing and agreeing with more predator management and hunts such as a spring bear hunt return and current cougar takes and tag increase. It’s the blasted commissioner board that has steadily been taking this away and putting more and more restrictions on predator hunts, such as them trying to know restrict and eventually take cougar hunting away. They directly ignore and vote against their own biologists recommendations!
WDFW had their lead large carnivore bio leave about a year ago because of the commissions direct actions against her recommendations or bear management through tag increase. Even the commission has a few good people on it, it’s the majority which are anti-hunting that are our biggest problem. Those commissioners are Melanie Rowland, Lorna Smith, Tim Reagan, Woody Meyers, Barbara Baker, and at times- John Lemkuhl
June 21-22 is their next meeting in Vancouver. Come attend and speak against this as they are making decisions about cougar hunts at that meeting….their going down the same route they took with the abolishment of spring bear.

More predators = less game
Less game = less hunters
Less hunters = people buying meat
Buying meat = higher meat prices
Higher meat prices = people selling firearms to buy food for families
Just a theory

It more than just the commissioners it the one who appointed them! Get rid of that problem and his cronies and maybe the right person will remove and replace the commission with the right people!:yeah:

For the season that ended a just a month ago did the cougar quota get filled in the Clark County GMU(s)?
The seasons in 564 and 568 have been closed since January 1st.
