Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Wolves in Wisconsin far exceed recovery goal

Yer at it again Brent,
You defend the so called professionals that spout facts that may not be close to the actual truth of the wolf situation.

The problem is that a bunch of starry eyed biologist and their eco crazy backers insinuated a wolf population into a landscape that has urbanized drastically from the envoirment it was when last they roamed those grounds.

The main problem is that they should have never been reinstated.

The solution is to remove them, not babble on about some ethereal, romantic view that in some way you've done the animals or the human population any good other than in your own mind.

As soon as Montana & Idaho get their chit together I
will try my damndest to be peeling the hide off a solid alpha male.
Maybe in both states if I can swing it.
I'd rather shoot wolves than deer or elk this year.
I'm totally stoked!

Perfect solution to cwd or invasive bugs,aquatic mussels,and weeds.Just leave them alone. I don't like to see my pheasant stamp money go to ads for "don't move you firewood".

Perfect solution for wolves is open season like coyotes until the population is much lower. Notice I didn't say total eradication.

if you like venison a 223 fmj through woofguts is safely effective

Yes..

A parallel example was the famous Dutch Elm disease.. The eco-nuts and tree-huggers went bananas trying to eradicate it.. They'd have saved billions of dollars if they'd just realize that once the food source is gone, the bugs go too.. The beetles could only survive in the heavier bark of older trees.. The young trees were relatively safe due to the juvenile bark layer..

Any time you concentrate a single species in high numbers you run much higher risks of insertion of diseases.. After the old Elms died off, what did they do? Replaced with Green Ash.. Now there's problems in those due to their high concentrations of plantings/population..

They never learn..

I heard scott walker is trying to take away the wolve's collective bargaining rights and the WIDNR is threatening a recount on everything.

So that WAS BrentD with a ' WALKER HATES WOLVES' sign in that video?? I KNEW it...

BentShe was the one holding up the sign that read...

'I'm A Dumbass Educated ManBitch'

26,000 bear in Wisconsin
1,500 bobcats
800 wolves.
Why do I see more wolf tracks than bobcat and wolf track combined? Because there are way too many wolves. I would not be surprised if there were 3,000 wolves in Wisconsin. Even around black river falls there is a bunch.

The WIDNR is very good at wildlife management - they manage to screw most things up.

There, I feel better now that expressed my daily WIDNR bashing.

You know why the WIDNR has never threatened to go on strike right?





Because nobody would [bleep] care!!

LOL!!

(I love throwin gas on the fire lol!! )

Excerpt from a Letter to the Editor published in the Lewiston Tribune on Jan 13th, 1967.....written by noted outdoor writer and hunting expert Jack O�Connor.

�I see by the Tribune of Jan. 9 that Gov. Don Samuelson says that he has got more criticism of the state game department than he has of any other department.

I�ve got news for big Don. If he fired every member of the department and staffed it with St. Peter, the Angel Gabriel, Sir Isaac Walton, Nimrod, Diana, Daniel Boone, and Charles Darwin he�d still get more criticism of the game department than of any other.

In my day I have been in a fair number of states and I have yet to be in one where the game department was not under fire and where there was not a strong movement underway to get rid of the director, to hang the biologists, to have the head of the law enforcement division torn asunder by wild horses, and the chairman of the commission beheaded, drawn and quartered, and his head exhibited in front of the state Capitol on a spike.

I long ago found out that if I wanted to get all the correct answers to the problems of game management I was wasting my time if I went to see the game department biologist. These poor slobs have only studied the various aspects of game management in universities for from four to eight years. They only spend about 250 days a year or so in the field and in the laboratory. They only know something about ecology, biology, chemistry, and various worthless subjects. As a consequence these biologists are all fatheads and their opinions are without value.

If I want to get all the answers but quick I just go to any bar, barber shop, or sporting goods store. I quickly find out that many people know exactly how all the problems should be dealt with, and that all this wisdom comes to them through a sort of osmosis�through having bought a hunting license, having spent two weekends hunting deer, or having talked to old Hi Jenkins, who used to be a market hunter and who came here in 1908.

For my part I set little store by these swivel chair experts in the game department or any other quacks with modern scientific pretenses. If I want to know how the weather is going to be I wouldn�t think of getting in touch with the weather bureau. Instead, I stop some little old lady on the street. I ask her how she feels. If she tells me that her corns are hurting, I know it is going to rain.

When I feel lousy I wouldn�t think of consulting an M.D. Instead, I pull a hair out of my head, send it to an old barber I went to when I was in college in Arkansas. He burns the hair in a darkened room, notes the color of the flame, and tells me what is wrong. The fact that I am still alive and relatively frisky at my advanced age shows the old boy knows his stuff."

"We've gone too long without that ability to manage some of these problem wolves and curtail the populations in certain areas," said Brian Roell, a Michigan Department of Natural Resources wildlife specialist. "It erodes the public support that wolves do have. In some areas it's gone close to zero."

I like this one.
