Sportsmen upset and demanding answers about elk depredation study

A depredation hunt is something that occurs when a particular species of wildlife is doing significant agricultural damage or poses threats to humans and other wildlife.

Idaho Fish and Game is run by farmers and ranchers, not hunters.

The Elite Idaho Fish and Game Sharp Sharp Shooters, they just do not have time to manage controlled hunts. Mike McDonald deserves everything they give him at this meeting, the Mule Deer are coming next , how on Gods green earth can you manage all these South Central Units when your spending all your time under the spot light.

IDFG is literally incentivizing and paying landowners to close their property to hunters since hunting the property would force elk off the property.

Definitely not working in the interest of the hunters who provide for the budget.

It took only one year for the entire state of Idaho to come down on Mike McDonald and his closed meeting no public speaking, and his non transparent agenda. Really, the public is not allowed to spotlight or hunt at night, but the IDFG is so special that they are the few that can hunt under the light and so special that they name themselves The Sharp Shooters! Maybe we can take a special class from IDFG so we can all get certified to shoot under the light. if we could hunt 24 hours a day maybe we could increase the harvest stats on the never ending over lapping seasons already in place.

Every time I learn more about this "study," I am more convinced it is a complete joke and every clown at IDFG involved should lose their jobs. Write to you senators, people.

The senators and representatives are bought and paid for from Idaho Farm Bureau. The legislature is trying to jam a new bill through that will eliminate the party affiliation rule. Getting the legislature involved is the worst thing we can do.
