FWP wants more money? For what? In the part of the state I frequent, there are so few animals that it wouldn't take much of a staff to 'manage' them. I'd not want to pay if I was an out-of-stater either. I skipped on a cow or doe tag this year because the chances didn't look good around the time it came time to put up money. Talking to a few FWP employees at a checking station last year, they are spending a bunch of money hiring people to kill specific packs of wolves for killing livestock. What they haven't done is get a handle on the number of elk and deer the wolves have killed.
The whole affair pisses me off so bad that smoke starts coming out of my ears. And now that populations are so low in many areas, of course they aren't going to attract big-dollar spenders.
