Wolves in Colorado!

Weatherby · Mar 3, 2020

Below is the link to a well documented vignette, from Eastmans, on the adverse effects of Wolves in Colorado, which are bound to propagate into other states:

Sad state of affairs, and the ballot-factor is a scary proposition!

talk about stating the obvious.....

Weatherby · Mar 3, 2020

Agreed, a lot of it is the obvious, but those that don't have the mindset of conservation, likely won't recognize many of the points as the obvious!

it will pass by 60%......Calirado is screwed

We are losing this battle. We need better PR than this video. Wolves have devastated NE Washington wildlife, taken down millions in livestock and for what...so someone can hear a wolf howl?

Our forefather eradicated wolves for a reason. They wipe out herds and then turn to domestic animals. Let’s turn some loose in Denver.

They will all starve anyway eventually. I'm wondering how many points it will take to draw a woof tag when they peak in a couple years. Come on, its only $7.

Thats sarcasm.

Like Homer said. The front range liberals will vote it through and they will start dumping them in the state by 2023/2024. By 2030 it will be the full on train wreck everyone expected it to be. They will quickly spread into Utah, New Mexico and AZ and the entire western US will suffer the consequences of this that didn’t already from the 1995 introduction into Yellowstone. Honestly the future looks bleak and sad for the future of Colorado’s biggame hunting as we once knew it.

Its a shame that Colorado can not open there eyes and see what’s going on in Idaho. The name calling, the big radical pro wolf groups showing up to tell you how to live with them. Once introduced the 10 to 12 years wait for a huntable population, with threats from the Feds if you shoot a protected wolf lifetime loss of hunting privileges and prison time. Once the packs get thriving, they will start pushing the herds of ungulates into Ag lands, US Fish and Wildlife government hunters will kill hundreds of them long before there is a wolf hunting season. The fish and game won’t do anything or say anything for being afraid of being sued by the big radical groups. The sportsman will finally get together and form a grass roots group go after the Feds and the State to get a wolf hunting season in place. It’s a lot of fun hunting those wolves that first season, then the wolves get smarter and smarter so they bring in trapping and boy that first couple of years of trapping is good but the wolves get smarter and smarter. The government hunters in helicopters, the rifle hunters, the archery hunters and the trappers cannot keep the wolf numbers in check, so the state puts out thousands of trail cameras and some how figures out we have 1600 wolves in the State of Idaho. The season just now opened up for almost the entire year. Our fish and game is now controlled by the farmers, and our wildlife is just an oppurtunity with no management.

Utah needs to declaire itself an ungulate sanctuary state , only Deer, Elk, Moose are welcome to cross its boarders. All preditors that cross the boarder, are fair game, shoot on sight. We have 2nd Ammendment sanctuaries why not this. If the people pushing this could prove the wolves they want to introduce are actually the exstinct southern rockymountain wolf, I dont think it would be much of an issue. But unless the scientist at jurassic park, can find some viable dna, then the wolves ARE NOT BEING REINTRODUCED, THEY ARE A NONATIVE SPECIES being shoved down your throat, as a means of damaging , hunting, hunters, state wildlife agencies, heII on down the list, even to the point of gun ownership, ect. What most people dont see, is that these A$$WIPES pushing this adjenda are in it for the LONG game.
