I think there is way more to this story. Why wasn't it left for FWP to investigat,why didn't the trapper report it. There are a lot of unanswered questions. Not a comment in the Ravalley Republic and 62 comments in the liberal California,Missoulinan oh their not biased.
I've had a lot of dogs, toby,lady,buffy,sam,snuffy,digger,nibz,goose,tank,blonde,babs and smokey.
It all comes down to personal preference and a dogs demeanor and or color attitude etc..
Northwest Montana has two things that contribute to the wolf population. Less open areas and those ileagal imagrintrant Canadian Wolves crossing the border.
I guess this blew a hole in the study that the more wolves that are killed the more livestock the wolves kill. The other side of not seeing...
It's not that most hunters wouldn't show up, it's that the majority have job commitments and getting time off for some don't pay the bills.
I would love to make all these sportsmans rally's but they never jive with my work schedule and getting time off.
This happened to the big horns just out of Melrose.
I'm not sticking up for domestics sheep owners but the problem is mostly agriculture fields that draw game animals to good feed and easy water. Wild animals have no boundaries and most fences and water barriers are not a deterrent.
With the...
As I said at least once a week in the Missoulian.

If you all have been watching the state news papers and the opinion articles, since this bill came about, almost once a week there is an oppinion against trapping, the Missoulian holds top honor for radicals
They will continue to keep relisting wolves where there are island populations of wolves.one must remember that there are no subspecies of wolves, their all the same. The law suits will never end?
This is the biggest slap in the face by FWP and the DOL. There are hunters who would give their left one for a tag and they just give them away to the tribes.
It's time to get the DOL out of the business of controlling how wildlife is managed. FWP seems to have no say.
Work for and excavation business. Drive truck and operate equipment, but mostly run the sand and gravel end, crusher,wash plant and rock drill. Just got done drilling and will blast again Friday.
Click on the picture and watch the short clip, pay attention to the fore groud and you can see the...
Wish I had the day off for the rally.
I may be wrong but I think part of this whole debacle is the push by some radicals to ban public land grazing. If the cattle people were to co-op they could buy large tracks of public land. This may be a stretch, but think about it if public land grazing...
I guess I was lucky. FWP called and I called the land owner and he let me know when the elk were there. He called and my son and I went up one evening and it was over. Pretty good deal because the land owner drug the elk down to the truck for us and helped load it.
This is a double edge sword. First ranchers will by what ever they can and people like Wilks will buy all they can get their hands on and last but not least environmental groups will step in.
I don't like this having states take over management of public lands. First off most states dont have a...
Without seeing the elk dressed out the shot was to high for a heart shot and barely got one lung. If it had deep enough penatration the liver would have been hit also. It looks more like a hit to the juggler vein the way it bled. I have done this shot several times on lethal shot and the best is...
