Wolf Cull

[Bubbacanuck]

With Pacific Wild getting 500,000 signatures to end the wolf cull, hopefully everyone has completed the below survey to ensure the wolf full does not end.

Has there ever been a wolf cull that did work??

Well, considering they reintroduced them into Yellowstone in 1995, I’d say yes.
In order for them to be ‘re-introduced’ they had to first be extirpated…

Yeah ….there has.
Don’t buy into the BS being peddled that ungulates are crashing strictly due to habitat.
Habitat, human encroachment and all the rest are contributing factors.
The top heavy predator load has tipped the scale.
Wolves are only one species that we have too many of.

I would say, we cull every year. When I have wolves show up on trail cameras, or when we are hunting and we identify wolves in the area, we communicate the numbers to the trappers, and each year they take a majority of them out. Not all. We support balance, but from 12 to 4 one year, from 7 to 2 one year. This year, looks like we're after about 4 wolves to maintain balance.

When it is done right, it WORKS!!

Wolf cull worked much better when they were disliked by all, poisoned, run with hounds, as well as the airial gunning trapping, and hunting.

I also think there were many more people after them 100 years ago. Homesteaders,ranchers,government. It was still the wild west lol

Today you have limited hunters, trappers, and sometimes gov hired contractors.

^exactly.

When you see a lot of grizzly sign and no moose sign it is an easy conclusion to reach.
