Please remember to keep it friendly. It's OK to disagree with others, but it's not OK to be disagreeable.

cwd, the moderators had an offline discussion about the topic because of the rancor that developed on a similar (now closed) thread last year. The post was just a proactive reminder to folks that we believe that everyone has a voice within the boundaries of the site rules, but we do need to keep it friendly.cwdtmmrs said:Exactly where was anyone being disagreeable?

I'm not a hunter, but I'm curious, it seems to me like the Fish & Game Dept. could make some money selling wolf tags, thereby managing their numbers to what they determine is acceptable. Could that possibly be a solution?idahoron said:Wolves have caused the down fall of several herds of elk here in Idaho. Moose hunting has been closed for a few years now in several units. I can understand the interest in wolves, They are a very interesting animal. But here in Idaho the only money that our game department has is Hunting and fishing licences and tag sales. When the wolves reduced populations, and in some cases beyond the breaking point. Idaho Fish and Game saw a reduction in revenue by many thousands of dollars. Now they are broke!
Hunting got worse and worse. The non residents left and many of the residents also decided that they would just sit out. So here is where I reach out to the people that can help. Please if you feel that strongly about them please write a check. Send in a contribution to the F&G to help protect our wildlife. I give them over 400 dollars a year in licences tags, and I also donate time. Our game departments need money to operate. If they can't get it from hunters someone needs to fill in. We all love animals, show it with your dollars.
