Everyone please go to the Big Game Forever Site and send in your letter to stop wolves from being stocked into Colorado. They have a form letter on the site that will send to everyone in Washington. It only takes a minute so please let it be known that we will not accept any more wolves into the rockies. I added some choice comments at the end of the form letter also.
PLEASE EVERYONE, THIS MUST BE STOPPED! We have lost most of the northern rockies and we can't lose what wildlife we have remaining. In my state I will never hunt moose now because wolves ate the entire population. In 1991 we had nearly 500 moose tags in the Teton valley. Millions of hunters dollars spent on sucesful stocking and management that worked. Now there are no moose tags and the fish and game admits that wolf predation has brought the moose population to virtually zero with the few remaining animals not enough to sustain the population. Predation by wolves year round and the severe overpopulation of grizzlies killing all the calves and we lost an entire herd of moose from yellowstone through the teton valley. Elk hunting has been destroyed also in this area causing extreme economic impact to local residents that depend on huting dollars.
Millions were spent on stocking moose in colorado and utah and now it is a major success story. They will all be dead soon if these wolves are stocked into Colorado along with the great elk stocking programs in Colorado, Utah, Arizona and New Mexico. I ask the government how many billions of dollars they had set aside in funds to pay back all the hunters dollars that created the large wildlife herds in the western states? What is there plan on distributing that money? How many hundreds of millions do they have set aside for wolf eradication and restocking of all the wildlife herds we have lost already plus all the ones we will lose in the future with expanding the grey wolf population? They need to come up with answers to questions like this quickly and hunters need to start asking these questions often to Washington. People in the west depend on all those cow elk and moose tags for meat. The government wants to feed those to the wolves in this economy and fatten them up while kids go hungry. It is no wonder why our government and people are the laughing stock of the world.
Hunters, I want to know are we going to finally get organized and make a stand or continue to sit back and do nothing. If these wolves are stocked into Colorado we are done for. This is your last chance to fight for the rights of wildlife in the western states. Because if these wolves are stocked all those billions of dollars we spent on stocking programs and careful management we all supported to get those precious tags is waisted.
I sincerely hope the government comes to there senses and scratches this idiotic plan. But if it continues with it every person in the country who cares about western wildlife has got to convene on the spot they plan on stocking these wolves and physically stop it to save western wildlife.
This has got to be stopped. Please help us stop it!
