The state of hunting in BC

[Cyrus]

In my mind, there is one challenge that trumps all others. Trust! Anti's don't trust hunters, hunters don't trust conservationists, First Nations don't trust hunters, hunters and guides don't trust First Nations, and nobody trusts guides or government.... you get the idea. The question is, who do we all trust?

And hunters don't trust hunters...

More and more every year for sure...although I've only taken one buck. Lots at night on my cams. Whitetail drive out muleys do they not?

In my observations, once Whitetail get very strong in numbers in an area, they do push muleys out...my observations only, but it's also their breeding ability that can keep pred numbers high that can greatly effect mule deer..

It would be like going to a steakhouse and talking about what everyone is going to order yet nobody has got a penny in their pocket to pay for it.

You are always talking about the view from 30,000, so go to the stadium and ask.........
to hear from the Save the Marten, Save the Wild Roses, Save the Three-toed Frog, Save the Grasslands, Save the Bats, Save the Peregrine, Save the Jade, etc etc, ad nauseum , groups who also have an obsession. Its not just about hunters and anglers.
Thinking big picture has its own problems

Also good to see that for about 1/3 things are good or better
Likely the same response one would get any time in the last 20 years
