    Cue the Bambification of CO's wolves...

    Why don't they have a naming contest for the antelope that live along the South Platte in the Denver area? "Asphalt - means that I was never born because 100's of square miles are paved over." "Shopping Mall - where I wasn't born so you can spend money on stuff to put in the landfill." "Golf...

    10-11 Jan 2024 CPW Commission Meeting

    So, is it just that the individual commissioners can't give direction to individual staff? I assume there are 'open meetings' rules that affect these conversations as well.

    10-11 Jan 2024 CPW Commission Meeting

    Ok, I was off base. So, the commission does tell CPW what to do? Why do I often hear them say things like, "I'm not directing staff to do anything." Like it's a line they can't cross.

    10-11 Jan 2024 CPW Commission Meeting

    I am pretty sure Commissioners have no authority to tell CPW to do anything. They can ask questions and make rules, but they are not directors. Zero point units will become 2 pt units in no time.

    10-11 Jan 2024 CPW Commission Meeting

    I attended today, but unfortunately was distracted with my job during much of the meeting. A few notes: Commissioners Haskett and Philips were pretty pissed about not being notified about the wolf releases. They spent countless hours, attended dozens of meetings, got beat up from both sides...

    Colorado Lion and Bobcat Ballot Initiative Update

    https://savethehuntcolorado.com/ Can't share this link too often. I recently had a pre-paid gift card that I didn't want to carry around and hope it was enough to cover a purchase, so I used it to make a donation. If anyone has gift cards and would like help finding the balance or selling the...

    Miserable Rainy Hunt Turns Into Muzzleloader Success

    My daughter (19) and I had archery elk tags, and my son (22) had a muzzleloader cow tag, and my wife was with, but doesn't hunt. We hiked in about 6 miles and set up camp. We saw elk across the valley as we were setting up. As my son and I made our way down and back up the other side of the...

    Wyoming feed grounds for elk in peril

    Educate me. Why not? Fewer elk, but healthier overall seems like worst case.

    Excluding Hunting/Hunters from Wildlife Management - Episode 1 of 4

    Reminds me of the guy that was given the mic at a recent CPW meeting and spent 10 minutes yelling at the commission about Non-Res OTC tags, smh. I wonder if, in a few years, he will realize that whatever the new resident percentage is, zero divided by any number is still zero. If more hunters...

    Cats Aren't Trophies

    There is a newly filed anti-cat hunting initiative. This initiative has some slight changes from initiative 91. It does allow (but not mandate) a lion season from Dec. 18-31 but all body parts other than the meat must be turned in to the CPW. It has been submitted to legislative council but...

    Ban the use of dogs == banning lion hunting.

    Cats Aren't Trophies

    I don't have a link for you to verify, but the last update I heard is that CRWM was able to get "trophy" removed from the ballot initiative language, but that decision can be appealed by the initiative's proponents. Commenters above are correct that CRWM is leading the fight and keeping CWCP...

    Call the sheriff and tell him you are cutting the lock in 10 minutes. I bet he shows up.

    What does "T-Down" mean?

    I'm reading an old story (in a collection of short stories) about a Canadian Mounty. He's describing one of their cabins they maintained for the mounties to use when out patrolling. The quote is, "There had been nobody stationed in it since the T-Down fed its last hay almost two months...

    Garfield County sues High Lonesome Ranch over road access

    Maybe we need 4 hunters from Missouri to show us Coloradans how to access our land. Worked in WY.

    Ken Burns Documentary, The American Buffalo

    Rinella subsequently shared that he told Ken that he thought the film was being particularly harsh on the buffalo hunters. Rinella thought they were portrayed as heartless bastards, when, as pointed out by themselves and others, it was all about money and even some Indians joined in on the...

    Non-Lead Ammo Voucher

    I'm pretty sure this was just a study mandated by the legislature. I don't think there is an actual program in place. Please correct me if I am wrong.

    Non-Lead Ammo Voucher

    Oh, I missed the sarcasm. I have come to expect that the anti-hunting community really does not care about wildlife. I don't see them out removing fences, spraying weeds, or hell, even counting bighorns. It is apparently lost on them that spending millions on lawyers to stop hunting creates...
