LAST EDITED ON Feb-12-10 AT 07:08AM (MST)[p]Good for him. Anyone with wildlife management 101 knows that we humans have some ability to manage wildlife. Most State Game agencies were started by concerned hunters. Not by animal rights radicals. The idea of management was to have high game animal populations and low predator populations. Society benefits from utilizing wildlife, both as a food source and as a recreational pursuit. Hunters spending money benefits people and wildlife. Liberals hate this.
I think more game departments need to speak out about wildlife management and be pro hunting when they talk to the media. Young hunters have grown up with the low deer numbers we have now. It does not have to stay this way. Game departments have adjusted and now have creative ways to increase revenue by increasing costs to just apply for tags. Not by providing more animals to hunt.
Our liberal, left leaning news media has spoken nightly to a whole generation of Americans, corrupting their minds with the politically correct mindset. This favors giving animals the same rights as humans and removing hunters from the natural scene and replacing human hunters with top end predators. So now we have too many coyotes, lions, wolves and bears and to few deer. Now wolves are expanding and decreasing elk herds which had been doing OK.
It is the same thing that has occurred in politics. Conservative thinkers have been demonized for decades by the socialists media. It seems the most hope we have for turning this tide is women politicians. They seem to be the most well spoken politicians we have right now. Most political men seem to have been neutered?
Just an old man's thoughts on what he has seen transpire over the years.
