Check this out - email I received:

Check out the size of these!

This is a picture of a pack of 25 wolves taken in the Weippe area in Idaho .
Each one of these eats 24 Elk per year. This group alone will consume 600
Elk this year. That doesn't even factor in the "sport kills".

The Canadian Gray Wolf runs in packs of up to twenty wolves. For every one
animal they kill to eat, these Canadian wolves kill about three more just
for the fun of it. The biologists call it "sport-reflex killing" or
"lustful killing". The Canadian Gray Wolf is a killing machine.
These are federal wolves, as it was the federal government who introduced
them into Idaho over our objections. They told the state of Idaho that the
wolves would be considered recovered when they had a total of 100 wolves
in Idaho . Now they have between 800 and 2,000 wolves and the situation is
out of control.

Idaho 's wolf emergency is a state issue. And in this situation, the state
of Idaho has both a duty and the authority to protect its people and their
property. House Bill 343 lays out the facts, the argument and the
authority to do so. - Idaho Rep Phil Hart.
Can you imagine gun control out there? This is not a good place to let the cat out. Make sure you are packing protection when you go for a walk in the
mountains. You never know when a wolf pack might surround you!

I'm a hunter myself. But I never understood predator hunting. We say we hunt deer and elk to help control populations and keep them healthy. Then we kill predators who do the same? If the elk population is threatened, maybe they should issue fewer tags instead of killing wolves. After all, they kill the weaker specimens, and we go after trophies. I think wildlife management should be left to the Department of Wildlife, not lawmakers.

If it truly is a non-native, destructive species, this is a huge screw-up in wildlife management and a tragedy on several levels. Not something to be celebrated IMO.

yeah, not really feeling the wolf killing, i mean just look how majestic some of those bastards look! i get it if there is a an extreme need but those guys are cool..... not really a big hunter myself though as i don't see the need, i went a few times just to learn how and what to do as i think that's essential, but beyond knowing how to hunt and clean a kill, i don't think it's necessary, i mean i get the thrill but don't really do it myself, all i can say is at least these people aren't hunting by helicopter.... but still, those guys look frigging awesome...it's a shame someone somewhere screwed up and has created this situation ...
 
WOW! I had no idea wolves were that big. They are beautiful, but that's easy to say looking at them on this screen. They wouldn't look so beautiful if 25 or even 2 of them were standing in front of me while walking in those mountains. Eaten alive by a pack of wolves would have to be the worst possible way to go.

^Great example of how people sometimes start out with a pre determined idea and work backwards from that.

On another note, HOCKEY IS BACK ON!!
 
Picked up one of these today:

Picked up a bulk 80 count of medium roast coffee for $24 for my Kuerig and I'm not sure if I regret this decision. normally I am over paying for Starbucks™ Verano dark roast K cups but this box was double the quantity and half the price. Taste like hot water rather than rich coffee I am accustomed too.

Gotta love that Kuerig!:toilet: Coffee makes mee poop
