New PBS poll on wolf protection.

[shoots-straight]

With the court gearing up to hear the wolf lawsuits, there's another poll out by PBS asking if wolves should have more federal protections. It's not scientific but Molloy and others might get direction from such a poll. Don't let the wolf preservationists win this. Right now those in favor of more protection are winning 67% to 32%, it was a lot worse. Do your part and vote. Also pass the link along to others.

I just voted and now the results are 45% No, 54% Yes.

I do dislike how left slanted that NOW show is. Thanks for the link!

Last count, 46% to 53%
Give another day, and the numbers will flip flop, IF they leave the poll up that long.
This link is getting out on some of the hunting and western talk sites.

This lady is crazy. Most of the activists have no clue.......times have changed.

"Commenter: karen lyons kalmenson
i am a wolf by karen lyons kalmenson
i am a wolf and before you came
i ran safe and free
now all that's changed
my land is gone
my numbers stunted
by so many people
who too much hunted
down my packs
for trophy and sport
or because this was
their way to cavort
this was my land before you came
now things can never be the same"

So is she offerring to move some place where wolves did not historically exist? If so, I think there are a lot of people who would volunteer to help her and her friends get moved in a hurry.

That poll has turned around completely, it was 77-22 for the "yes" or something when I first read it.

 

[MNHunter]

4179 votes now...55% No to 44% Yes

Looks like motivated sportsmen forums are responding en masse.

..24hr. has this up also.

I voted yes, I would hate to see what would happen to them if they were managed by state wildlife agencies. Heck they can't even keep elk numbers up in MT and deer numbers up in WY. They couldn't possibly handle some bad ass wolves.

 

[shoots-straight]

You want the federal Government to keep them on the list? Considering your a Wyomingite I should have known. Wyoming's done such great job with the whole situation. Of course without Wyoming's stance there would be no grounds for the suit in the first place.

38% yes
61% no

That would be the best thing that could happen for Wyoming though. Their toast without the other two states.
