“I think there’s probably more likelihood of being injured by a moose than a pack of wolves,” he said.:tup:

What the Heck is this Crap? I have been in the woods all my life and have never even had the thought of a Moose attacking me!  And I grew up in Utah where we have Moose all over. I have seen Dozens of them when we have been hiking up in the mountains. :dunno:

What Dumb Arse thought that was a good response? :bash: :bash: :bash: :bash: :bash: :bash: :bash: :bash: :bash:

Stupid is as stupid Does.  :bdid:

It's a wolf hugger trick,  divert the topic of the conversation to something other than wolves.

Yes, moose can be dangerous to the unwary and unlucky.  They can monkey stomp the crap out of you, but it's irrelevant as the topic is about wolves.

Personally, I'd much rather be within 100 yards of a moose than a grizz any day.

BINGO, this is precisely what happens with most wolf topics, the wolf supporters always find a way to derail the topic so that wolves do not look as bad. I posted a topic last winter about a local hunter who was chased up a tree and was not happy with the way that topic was hijacked. Now the same story again.

This topic is about a wolf attack that was confirmed by WDFW, please keep it on topic.

It's unfortunate, but let's not overreact.

They likely mistook the hunter for being old or weak, since that's the only thing wolves prey on.

Oh the hypocrisy! :chuckle:

Funny the people I know in N ID are less afraid to shoot a wolf, or 5 than a moose.
In archery we have something like the way of the superior man. When the archer misses the center of the target, he turns round and seeks for the cause of his failure in himself.

What is wrong with this picture?

- $22,500 reward offered for a wolf poacher in Stevens County
- $15,000 reward offered for a wolf poacher in Kittitas County
- Nothing offered for the wolf that attacked the hunter in Stevens County and no restitution for the terrorizing experience

Two different narratives, one is save the wolf and the other is people/ranchers affected by wolves don't matter.

Likely there will just be missing persons reports.  :twocents:

As I was reading the above posts, I thought the exact same thing.  It'll just be a matter of time before hikers, hunters, or whomever, start disappearing and you have to know they will NEVER blame it on the wolves, no, it'll likely read something like this; Little Suzie Smith, missing while hiking with friends and family, is presumed dead but she showed signs of being dispondent preceding the family outing.

My eleven year old daughter wants to get into hunting but I'd be lying if I didn't admit I have some amount of concern for her safety and I think we all can admit, things are going to get a whole lot worse, before they get ANY better!

Another thought I have is what's going to happen when we get a hard winter?  We haven't had a hard winter in a few years but what will happen when we get a big snow year and it pushes everything down low.  Then add to that an extended cold stretch.  I'd imagine sightings would become much more regular under those circumstances but I'm sure the WDFW will say, no worries they're just passing through....
