Hope you'll be back on your feet soon, I know it's killing you not to be able to get out there and squeeze the trigger. I also have words for those who cheat the handicap systems (or "special needs", or whatever they want us to call it now). I had a friend who died of MD and I used to have to lift him in and out of his little Toyota wheel him around. Of course, we could never find a handicap parking spot for the reasons you mentioned. Anyway, I hope you have a better year (no sarcasm).
Kill the wolf?

The lands are supposed to be for multiple use. Logging, and grazing, open up the canopy, grasses and brush benefitting wildlife. Plus we don't have to choke on the smoke of megafires. The Forest Service at one time was producing revenue, not just another cash cow. Even berry picking is being restricted. The current policies of eliminating access, benefits us how?

we can go to California's model of "Save the forests! No logging! Let em burn!"

Things that keep Wolf numbers in check: Parvo, Mange, Poison, Aerial Gunning in select areas. Even with tracking collars, visualizing wolves beneath the helicopter for a shot isn't always possible.
BC spent millions to check the wolves, and improve endangered caribou numbers, gunning some of the sheep areas have been successful as well.
I've had multiple wolf tags, and have seen them, but no shot opportunity.

California, Oregon, Idaho, Montana, Washington, Alaska, BC, Alberta. We're located in such a place we've choked on smoke from all of them depending on weather direction.
Your so right, oldpilot. We really have no one to blame but ourselves. We gave the schools to ideologists , gave our children to silicon valley through smart phones, and let socialist in the house . Its deeply disturbing how the government use to actively seek out communist and socialist networks In the US and shut them down. Now we let them be a part of our governing body.
Question is, what do WE do about it.?
Why should there be any more money spent to do studies when the studies done across the border in canada havexalready shown the wolves need to be killed off....hey if any makextheir way into the big cities of CA or Nevada or anywhere else we can let them decide what ro do within their own borders....
But....following suit to start implementing a dead on sight program is the only way the numbers will have a chance to drop....
Giving the Wolf a foothold has gone way too far.....time to put out the traps..snares..poisons..hunters.............and no fees attached to out of staters wanting to come north to hunt wolves....that in itself is a ridiculous fee....they aren't trophys....they are vermin.......

I still think we should live trap them and send them postage paid to New York and California...

Classic government, use our money to create a problem, then use our money to study the problem.
Can't wait to be charged for changing the weather.

First you become involved:. I frequently am asked to speak at schools, various service clubs, and do so with the caveat that we begin w
the pledge of Allegiance and a prayer. I am on demand at private and charter schools and I am officially banned from 3 public schools. They like me for career days. I have flight gear, and a slide show/power point presentations, and I never display my rank, or decorations and I try to do15 minutes then open for questions.
I attend as many events on wildlife, immigration, zoning issues, town hall meetings with legislative Representatives etc, as I can. Next, I recruit others to go as well to encourage their involvement. The gun range guys cringe when I show up to check posting gun rights meetings. In short I try to attend anything where I can offer an opinion or expose hidden agendas and there are a lot of of those at school and fish and game meetings. Cardinal rule! Research, never lose your temper, but disagree with anything that doesn't pass the smell test. At my age I can be assured not many take me seriously, but I must provoke questions because I get a lot of calls wanting to get more on my opinions. People over 70 are pretty much regarded like potted plants.
I've lived in montana now on my 28th year and have attend every bi-annual meeting the F@G has had and some that the public wasnt open too.
It used to be 100+ people would attend the meetings at the Red Lion in kalispell and then moved to the college.
Last year there was about 12 people me included I was shocked.
But it seems everybody has lost faith in our F@G that I talk to so they just dont come anymore. This year it's at the Kalispell F@G office.
While its frustrating to here what's going on not attending is not the answer our anti- hunting and gun control groups are very presistant and I think as a whole we are lacking in that department.
I dont want to turn this into a political thread but any body who reads this should attend the meeting Jan.3rd at the Kalispell F@G office if there in the area, I believe it's at 6.00 p.m but I'm not sure on the time.
