[QUOTE="MtPockets, post: 1910026, member: 39651"] I don't know that I-177 will ever really get passed as it was written. I could see a severely watered down version to restrict trapping in heavily used areas, but even the MTA has advocated for that. The biggest argument for I-177 was the fear of "collateral catches" and their is an awful lot of public land where that is really not likely. Hell, even the Missoulian encouraged people to vote no! I agree with Sherm- our FWP, the Commisioners, and our Legislature need to grow a set and quit giving in to the wolf huggers. They did it when they restricted the kill to just 2 wolves in 313 and 316 and they did it when they didn't allow snares, and now they are doing it again with reducing the quotas in those same areas. More and more, it seems like our FWP is unconcerned with doing what is right- they'd rather follow politics. Personally, I think we need to get rid of the Commission. Why on Earth are 4 politically appointed people who have absolutely ZERO training in Wildlife Management directing our FWP? THAT RIGHT THERE is where the Politics starts in Montana wildlife management! [/QUOTE]
