[QUOTE="Colorado Cowboy, post: 593243, member: 33436"] The wolf issue is here to stay unfortunately. I believe the feds used the Endangered Species Act illegally to introduce a non threatened species into a new habitat where it has never existed before. If I was really flush with $$$ I would hire an expensive barrister and take them to court. This is not what Congress intended! We don't have wolves here in Colorado, but it is only a matter of time until we do. I fully intend to practice S S S, I'm sure most of you know what that means. I recently returned from a wilderness elk hunt to the famous Thorofare area of the Teton Wilderness area of NW Wyoming. I was supposed to be the trip of a lifetime for me. Historically hunters have very high success rates for elk, deer, moose & sheep in this area. This was surely not the case for our hunt. I went with a well known outfitter who ran a great operation. But we only got 1 elk (a cow) for 8 hunters!!! My guide said that he is seeing fewer elk, deer & moose every year. There were bleached bones everywhere that he said were from wolf kills. We saw wolves almost every day. I only saw one deer the whole trip. Saw a few elk who were so shittish that they would not bugle(we were there when the rut was on). Pretty sad situation. Now there is talk of a new introduction of Mexican Wolves in the Colorado Plateau, whice encompasses the 4 Corners area where I live and hunt a lot. This is just madness! [/QUOTE]
