Title: WDFW/RMEF help purchase land near Naches.
Post by: cabin308 on August 19, 2009, 11:38:41 AM: Did anyone else see this article from the Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation?

I think it's great that the patchwork of private and public land where many of us go to hunt and play is going to be kept open for the public and managed by the WFDW. This part caught my eye at the end of the article and raised a question...

"The purchase price of $3.27 million was provided in grants from the state Washington Wildlife and Recreation Program ($1.8 million) and from a U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service fund designed to protect habitat for endangered species ($1.47 million)."

With the alleged lack of honesty by the WDFW and USFWS and their histories of deliberately withholding information on the state wolf recovery program, does anyone else see this area as the next potential spot for the state's next "new" wolf pack? Or am I reading way too far between the lines?
