Just wondering, with all the talk of CWD, has anyone been able to capture video footage or pictures of dead or dying deer or elk? Please post them if you have captured anything

For those that have been following this bill (SF003 - Antelope hunt licenses), Thursday morning the Committee of the Whole rejected the MacGuire amendment thus removing it. Today, Friday, March 2, 2018 the Committee of the Whole rejected an amendment offered up by Representative Clem, but it...

Topgun - Do you think it will be any easier to wait for a couple years before we hunt grizzly bears or should we stand behind the fact that grizzly bears are recovered and well above recovery goals and objectives? How many grizzly bears are removed annually through agency action? As I said...

Buzz, neither you nor Jeff said anything about a hunt. It's a simple question; will BHA (you guys) be supporting a grizzly bear hunt or not?

Buzz, once again you prove my point. Where were you in 2003-2005? That was when we had G&F Commissioners that were trying to push for delisting of grizzly bears and not getting a lot of support. In order to garner support, one of the things they discussed was having the WGFD stop paying for...

Deerlove, you know me better than that. I have never condoned breaking the law, ever. Wyoming has less wolves because of the battles Wyoming fought foe it's Wolf Management Plan. At first, the USF&WS didn't back our plan; however, once they realized that our plan was correct and more...

The facts don't support your point puff. Wyoming fought hard to obtain the wolf management plan that was right for Wyoming. When you look at overall wolf populations and distribution, Wyoming is far better off than Idaho and Montana. Even though we have had to fight for our State's Rights to...

Junior, marrow is normally pure white so when you find an animal with white or normal marrow, you assume something killed it. Once an animal begins to use their marrow it starts to turn pink. That is a sign the animal is beginning to digest its reserves. Doesn't mean that the animal will die but...

http://trib.com/lifestyles/recreation/wyoming-must-wait-to-manage-wolves/article_51f8a85a-a34d-555f-ba15-5821b3f6c5fd.html Not so fast...... What a bunch of BS!

The story I was told was the park service hired a couple outfitters to pack lake trout in to the lake. They deny it now but I have heard outfitters admitting that they knew the guys that brought them in via horses and packs. Mighty Hunter summed it up well; this is nothing more than the grand...

Just was wondering what stories there are around the Wyoming Trifecta drawing. Anyone from MM draw one those licenses? Just wondering where all the excitement is about these quality hunts.

Hawkeye was the RMEF not one of the initial groups that worked on the EXPO; yet, they chose not to participate in the original EXPO? Now they didn't come back with a proposal to partner with the existing groups that took the risks and made the EXPO a success. This would seem as though they were...

Troy will do a great job for Utah SFW. Congratulations Troy. Just for the record RMEF was involved in the initial talk about the EXPO. It was their decision to walk then, as it was their decision to try to take the EXPO from SFW & MDF. I have often wondered why no one is asking what Fallen, NV...

Here is another video you should also watch. Here is the link:

What do you think about making it optional, like they do in Idaho? I have wondered how critical it is to require it. I don't know that it changes a lot simply by allowing the hunter to decide whether or not they want to where it. Seems more reasonable and doesn't appear as though a lot of...

Hey, I didn't see either one of you guys this year during the legislative session. I thought for sure I would see you on Tuesday when the TRW Committee held their hearing for Interim Topics. Give me a shout when you get a chance. Thanks, SMOKESTICK (aka) Bob Wharff

You might also contact the Uinta County Sheriff's Department and let them know that you found something. This might prove helpful for whomever lost their bag of hunting stuff. Their number is 307-783-1000. I am certain that you could just inform them of your find and provide them with your...

MightyHunter, The Joint Travel, Recreation, Wildlife and Cultural Resources (TRW) Committee met in Kemmerer, WY on Tuesday, August 11th. One of the topics discussed was wolf management. An update was given by a Senior staffer from US Senator Enzi's office, Mike Jimenez- USFWS, Rod Merrell...

Jeff, Even though WY SFW strongly supported the current expansion of authority to enforce shed antler hunting, the G&F Department attempted to expand that authority to include the entire state. It was our position then and I doubt that our position will change that it wasn't warranted on the...

nontypical, You hit the nail on the head, in my opinion. The bottom line is that I do NOT want to see our public lands sold; rather, I would prefer that our state administer the management of those lands. Wyoming has little, if any, incentive to take possession of these public lands and sell...

Here is a link from a Montana blog:https://themontanan1889.wordpress.com/2015/04/29/federal-gov-wants-to-sell-excess-and-unused-federal-land-to-fund-transportation-infrastructure-projects/ What is to stop the federal government from selling it off?

I would encourage you to work with your state elected officials to ensure that you have a seat at the table should this happen. Currently, the federal government could sell these lands to settle the national debt without consulting with state elected officials or state citizens. Why is it that...

So how often does this happen in the eastern states? It seems as though the western states are held to a different standard. I just learned that the Senate last night passed a budget resolution calling for the sale of federal lands to make a dent in the budget deficit. According to Wyoming's...

LAST EDITED ON Mar-19-15 AT 01:25PM (MST)[p]Really BuzzH! I cannot understand how you can call me yesterday and not even mention your post #33, you posted on Friday the 13th. So you aren't trying to work with me (WY SFW), you are trying to decrease our influence in Wyoming. Sure didn't seem...

Cedar City, UT gets it. SALT LAKE CITY ? A federal judge ruled the government cannot extend protections for the Utah prairie dog to private property, reasoning that it is a state-specific species with little bearing on the economic "scheme" of the Endangered Species Act...

PleaseDear, How do you figure WY SFW is so very happy and in joy over this ruling? It might send a tingle down your leg but it hasn't impressed me. In fact, I am tired of trying the same old route and that is why we are trying something different. As Senator Delaine Roberts used to say all...

Nice buck. Congratulations!

You sure got off topic in a hurry. Guess I struck a nerve. We'll see what happens with Wyoming's wolves soon.

Sorry BuzzH, but I believe that I am NOT a serf, obligated to do as instructed. Maybe it just is simply not in your DNA to question authority; however, it courses through my veins. On October 20th, the Joint TRW Committee had an opportunity to learn more about the purpose of an evidentiary...

We shall see!

Congratulations. That is a nice bull.

WY SFW has petitioned our State Government to hold an evidentiary hearing to address our belief that the federal government is acting outside their proper authority. Governor Mead, the Joint Travel, Recreation, Wildlife and Cultural Resources Committee (TRW) and State Leadership are looking...

You should have politely asked her to wait as you were calling the local game warden. I would have called one out and asked the game warden whether you were right or the lady. If she was blowing smoke, she would have left right then and there. If she thought she was right, she would have...

Here is the link to an article which appeared in the Casper Star Tribune. I have not seen the actual release from the candidate but it appears as though he believes Wyoming should not sit down and be quiet regarding the decision issued by Judge Jackson, Washington, D.C...

MightyHunter, I think you are seeing things the same as am I. Wyoming and the USFWS both supported delisting. The evidence supports delisting; yet, an activist Judge, living in Washington, D.C. has placed wolves back under federal protection. How can this be the intent of the ESA? Clearly...

You can wonder all you want to and you can suppose anything you like. And....... you are right, it is just a guess, on your part. What I know, Wyoming has prevailed in two courts; Judge Johnson (Wyoming) and Judge Jackson (Washington, D.C.)both stated that Wyoming's plan works. The data...

Maybe we are asking the wrong questions?
