[QUOTE="MNbogboy, post: 760389, member: 18849"] emn83 You have pretty much nailed it.....Moose & deer populations grew in northern MN for the last 100 years with the introduction of market logging and other timber harvesting... Ever increasing game population also provided for an increase in predator numbers. How ever early settlers were able to controll the an increasing wolf & coyote populations..... Now as we face a decline in timber harvesting we as well see a decline in game populations...At the same time wolf populations have been un-naturally propagated and protected to a very un-healthy level.... Part of the decline in timber harvesting is again a direct result of a selected few who make decisions based on opinion and not fact...Superior National Forest and parts of the BWCA are an example of how an undersubscribed harvest plan can affect everyone and everything...These practices have been responsible for job loss as well as a declining natural habitat for countless species of game and non-game animals. We have more wolves in northern MN than at any point in recorded history and moose populations are still at a higher level than they were 100 years ago or 200 years for that matters... Most of the so called enviromentalists have no clue to how these invasive practices are affecting our eco-system...Taking humans out of the natural equasion at a time when human populations are rising steadily certainly is a mistake...
