Looks like snap took his marbles and went home....
The problem is there simply isn't enough game for everyone to have a successful hunt in BC at this time.
Its a real blow to resident hunters to have their already poor chance of success diminished even further, can you blame them?
Its true wolves have had an impact, not as much as some would have you believe though, some would have you believe natives are the root of all evil.
There are upwards of 20,000 new resident hunters in BC over the last 5 years competing for the same LEH, making odds of getting a draw even less, who decided that was a good idea? How is that strategy working out for you?
The land simply isn't capable of supporting the amount of game that it historically has in the past due to government policy or lack of it regarding habitat for ungulates.
To ridicule others into not coming to BC to hunt is idiotic and stupid and I will distance myself from these so-called "resident hunters" They single out americans when theres many people from other provinces who come here and use G/O services as well to hunt sheep/grizzly/moose etc.
Habitat destruction by the mining industry seems to have had a big impact on game populations. It also opened up areas with new roads. The game gets pushed farther back into less habitat.
It's easy to blame American hunters and guides. Take a good look into the specter called "prosperity". You might see too many spoiled nests.
I loved BC and first hunted there 54 years ago. Don't let it become one big open pit.
