Interesting that on page 9 the general feeling on feeding can result in potential dangers to our ungulates and we still allow baiting. Time to change the way we think before it's too late.
the feeding they are talking about is supplemental feeding not baiting. Supplemental feeding would be the sheep feeder on the salmo creston highway run by a local group. A friend in castlegar has her neighbor by 20 tons of hay every winter for the elk that Come down to his property. Regardless of the winter snows he buys the hay to feed the elk.
This was a proposal put forward in 1990 that was never moved on.
The beginning of the resolution file this is under states "Therefore Be It Resolved, that the following resolutions from the BCWF Resolutions Direction from theMembership 1972-2016 be rescinded as to truly reflect the current needs and viewpoint of the BCWFMembership, andBe It Further Resolved, that these rescinded resolutions be recorded in our History of BCWFResolutions."
There are resolutions from 1970-2016 that are due to be rescinded in this vote, and this includes the one you are concerned with.
