Bcat,
Point well taken. I don't doubt your opinion at all, I am just wondering why most states still allow the killing of female lions if what you are saying is true? Do you guys in WY have quotas for females that is separate from males? In NM the quota is for either sex...
Thanks for all the replies folks, let's keep this going. Let me add another angle to this. If we are considering this to be a "money issue" and not a "management issue" then I offer the following: From an outfitter's standpoint, my guided elk, deer, and bighorn sheep hunts make me 4-5 times...

Cali,
I really don't think much of the idea. I think they ought to let sportsmen get in there and get them instead of paying contractors! There are 6 contractors that already have agreements with the NMDG&F to kill the lions this year. They tried this last year also except that the...
You guys have all brought up some very good points in this discussion. To be honest I had not thought of some of the angles that have been brought up. Muledeer, you bring up an interesting part of this pie and that is the part that politics plays into all of this. It is true that the game...
Cuban,
We'll get him next year!
Mountain Boomer,
We'll do!! If you are ever out this way, look me up also! We have LOTS of cottontails here, I really don't know why there are no rabit hunters here.
LeftBehind,
Thanks, I will!
Thanks for the posts everyone!

Tanglefoot,
One deer a week is a good rule of thumb. Females with cubs may take a few more and toms may take a few less. Deer are their main staple, although in my area they have started killing lots of elk, since there are not many deer left. I guess that once they start killing bighorn...
There has been alot of discussion on here lately about the killing (or not killing) of female lions. I do not want to start a fight here, but I'd like to get the opinions of other folks on the forum.
I generally agree that it is probably not a good idea to kill female lions, but there are some...
Boomer,
I hunted with Beagles in LA a few years back and I had a ball. I got such a kick out of those dudes bawling in the brush. You'd have thought they were after a grizzley bear! Show us some pictures of your dogs! I am kind of bummed today, our lion zone closed down because the quota is...
Boomer,
You are exactly right, it is just as much fun to tree a cat and not kill it. The temperature that day was probably about 35 degrees. It really does not get too cold here. That is the problem with lion hunting here, one day you have good snow, the next day nothing. Thanks for the...
Great post KW! You are right about the action shots. I am going to try for one next time. Looks like old Rock is in there amongst them, LOL.

KW,
Great to see you back. Post some more pictures for us!
I have had collars taken off my dogs a few times. The one that really stands out in my mind was when I left a dog out overnight. I went back the next morning and could not find the dog for the life of me. I kept getting strong...
Josh,
That is a tough question! As you know, alot of things come into play, like how good your dogs are, wheather the track is in snow or dry ground, wheather the track has been warmed by the sun then frozen again, etc. Generally speaking, you can easily run a track in the snow that is 24...
Cuban,
Glad to see this thread back in the hound section where it belongs. Did you get the pics scanned? Let me know if you need more help posting them.

Nice dogs Wolfer! Do you use the B&Tdogs for coyote? Do you still have all the B&T's? If you ever want to run yotes, send me an e-mail, we have lots of them out here and we could use a lot less! That litter looks like a great bunch of dogs!
