Fine with me... Don't want to cooperate? Pay the fee.

Though I'm inclined to think ODFW will likely not use the data in a particularly productive way, at least we can do our part by giving it to them... Who knows, maybe they will come up with a new idea... How about introduction of the timber wolf to Multnomah County?

Let some of the wolves lose soon I like the idea. :)


If there is any proof of a man in a hunt it is not whether he killed a deer or elk but how he hunted it.

And Washington, Clackamas, and Marion Counties.

I have reported for 4 or 5 years now. And they still call me every year with thier phone survey's. Another good use of MONEY.
