Brownell's Spring Reloading Sale

Catron Co.,NM declares state of emergency...wolves.

Often times you say the dumbest shit on here. Grow up.
Might be nice if lots of people focused more on facts.

Normally it's USDA APHIS responsible for predator control.

If this issue bothers you, start asking what recently happened to their staff and budget. And their union!

Oh yeah, relax and it will be alright, right?
 
Didn't they follow through with eliminating those feral cows?

I've spent a lot of time in your neck of the woods. Have you ever read "Black Range Tales"? If not, I highly recommend it. You can usually find a copy on Thriftbooks etc. We don't visit much anymore. Even the Gila has been overrun with people. Almost bought land there at one point, glad we didn't.

I used to work with an LEO who became FS LEO on the Gila out of Reserve. Unfortunately, like you said there was a lack of appreciation for wildlife and a huge poaching problem.

I'd guess a small percentage of these cattle kills are actually attributable to wolf predation. I bet twice as many die from locoweed toxicity as they do from wolves. Although in the name of keeping goodwill, I think we should reimburse most claims where there is a dead cow or calf.
No it was dropped. 2nd time in 5 years FS has tried the chopper shoot too.

I was asked to join local forces, FS & sheriff. I laughed and said no thanks. 20 years is enough.
USFW,BLM & USDA-FS LEO's all drive unmarked vehicles these days. Since the Bundy BS.
These folks get threatened daily I'm sure.

The kills are recorded, forensics done. Tooth mark measures, etc. Tracks. USF&W and G&F do the work.

US F&W jurisdiction. ESA critters are under their watch. Wolves particularly in NM & AZ.

Dang. I'd appreciate it if you send any information you have on the feral cattle to me. I deal with mavericks as a side gig.

Volunteer?
Word on the street is FS is officially out of $.

I helped round cattle in the Criswell one day. I made it til 10am. LOL
 
Cute Mexican woofs are getting bolder now, not so adorable anymore? They need to ESA reintroduce jaguar next. Maybe roll that into HSI budget as asymmetric border enforcement bioremediation.
 
My first time hunting in Carton county was over ten years ago for turkey and the wolf problem was just starting. The past three years that I’ve hunted in said country it has only worsened something really needs to be done and done soon
