And the Hits just keep on coming....WY now.

There's an $80k doublewide for sale in Wamsutter and it doesn't get any more glamorous than that.

How far is that from the adult ballet in Rock Springs?

Not far at all if you've had a few beers.

We are on a collision course for wildlife for the wealthy, and instead of pumping the brakes I feel like we are pouring the coal and running full speed ahead.

I agree wholeheartedly.

Hey @Trial153. @JLS planted the seed so we will have to pay him to license the name or whatever, but we could start holding Wildlife for The Wealthy banquets. With an acronym like WTW and all the fat cats spending their money at the banquets we could be hunting with LO tags and on outfitted private ranches in no time.

When did it become the state game agencies' mandate to rake in as much cash as possible?

Kind of a requirement to enter a place like that. That and poor night vision

I thought about that myself a while back. Then I realized that what my house and 35 acres would bring here would get me a single wide on a couple of acres up there.

That is the truth. Might be cheaper to live inexpensive in midwest and just pay the increased fee every 5-6 years on a general tag.

As a quick follow up, as I’m sure some residents would ask “why do I care if the only NR hunters are rich fat cats?”

Simple. Look at what is happening in MT and you can see how it really isn’t that difficult to leverage this if you have enough money.

When managing wildlife got expensive

 

[BuzzH]

Buzz I looked at that and I'm personally doubtful of their assumptions probably a reaction to spending 5 years doing audits of governments.

Talk to LSO...those numbers are good.

What got so expensive?

 

[BuzzH]

Good point, everyone wants to pay the GF 1978 wages to manage wildlife, and everybody wants to pay 1978 license fees to hunt as a NR too.

Join the fight for our public lands!

Right?! Yeah so we all have a place to chase them!***

***an amount equal to, or less than 10%.... unless you’re from here.

 

[Carl 9.3x62]

Those odds should soar to 2%. I can’t wait to draw my second choice moose tag.

 

[BuzzH]

What got so expensive?

Are you seriously asking that?

Ever looked what it costs to upgrade or build a new GF office? Wages? GPS Collars? Wildlife Crossings over highways? Cheatgrass treatments? Noxious weed treatments? Land acquisitions? Access programs? Relocating sheep? Trucks for Wardens to drive? Fuel for those vehicles? Fish stocking? Raising fish? Helicopter time to classify herds? CWD management?

Do I need to go on...or are we good?

News flash, wildlife management isn't free....

 

[Carl 9.3x62]

What got so expensive?

Everything

If they keep raising tag costs and cutting tags the answer will be GTFO with all that.

The residents of the western states can fight for public land. I think a lot of peoples give a shit will be broken. Why on earth would I donate my time,energy, or money to fight for all these causes people like to throw around if I can’t use them. I will be better off leasing more ground locally, buying LO tags, or going to Africa every 3-4 years.

 

[Carl 9.3x62]

I keep seeing people posting about fighting for our public lands, as if they are only good for hunting. Just because you can't draw an elk tag doesn't mean you can't come enjoy your public land.

Do it...nobody in Wyoming will get in your way.

Have fun and shoot a few circus animals for me.
