Title: March Commission Meeting
Post by: TriggerMike on March 22, 2025, 09:20:32 PM: How'd it go? I wasn't able to watch and haven't seen an update on it yet. What did the commission have to say about the Ruckelshaus report? What was their vibe/decision on cougar and bear seasons for this year?

What is the status of bear and cougar season? Did they say they're going to adopt what WDFW recommended or are they deviating from that?

IMO they are setting up to do whatever they want when it comes to bears and cougars. the questions they were asking and the looks on most of their faces really answered alot of my questions as to what they will do.
