  • Utah legislature likely to fund alternative education program using wolf fairy tales

    Ralph Maughan

    Don Peay, Ryan Benson to receive 300K to spread fables- Utah is dead last place in America in per-pupil spending on education. The state legislature does want to innovate, however. So for a second year it appears they will grant $300,000 to Don Peay, founder of Sportsmen for Fish and Wildlife and the related anti-wolf group Big Game Forever, headed…

  • Cascadia Wildlands » Identifying and Dealing with the Anti-wolf Forces (PG-13)

    Ken Cole

    I came across a blog posting this morning that I thought the readers of The Wildlife News would be interested in.  Bob Ferris of Cascadia Wildlands has written a great and fascinating piece about some of the more recognizable anti-wolf figures in the Northern Rockies. Some, probably most, of these people have tried to post…

  • PBS Newshour: Cowboys vs. Gray Wolves: Predator Once Again Prey

    Ralph Maughan

    Anti-wolf extremists seek to threaten reporting on wolves- It seems like a fair piece to me, although the report consistently overestimates the number of wolves. There are no longer 1700 wolves in the Northern Rockies. There never were 1000 in Idaho though this is what the report says. Cowboys v. Gray Wolves. The usual suspects…

  • Elk poaching anti-wolf leader punished

    Ralph Maughan

    Tony Mayer can’t hunt or fish in Idaho for poaching big elk- Finally, and after a trial, Mayer lost his hunting and fish privileges for 3 years, was given a 220-day suspended jail sentence, got put on probation for six years, was ordered to pay $1585 in various court costs, fees, and ID Fish and…

  • Jim Beer's speech in Boise. Anti-wolf, tea party, nullificationist

    Ralph Maughan

    Notes on his speech- I guess by now Beers needs no introduction, but the themes he expresses show the anti-wolf folks are really just part of tea party eruption with their efforts to nullify the laws of the United States. He would make the Southern Confederates of Civil War days proud, IMO. The notes below…

  • Idaho state trooper to be charged with moose poaching

    Ralph Maughan

    Cpl. Jeff Jayne, accused, is reported to be another anti-wolf worrier about declining elk, etc- This is from back in late November, but it is incredible.  There hasn’t been any recent news on this, but here is the article in the Bonner County newspaper. Bonner County, Idaho abuts Canada. I thought the story should get…

  • Former Gov. candidate Rex Rammel could face charges for allegedly killing elk

    Ken Cole

    Wow!! Who’s next? Who knows? If there is a conviction in this case, it might solidify my theory that anti-wolf advocates are behind the decimation of elk herds 😉 Recall, Rex Rammel is the politician who joked about “Obama tags“. He also had a run in with then Governor and now Senator Jim Risch after…

  • Montana deals with worries over worms

    Ralph Maughan

    The msm Media just aren’t buying the scare tactics- “I believe that there are some who wish it … to be the silver bullet to remove the wolf,” said state Sen. Bruce Tutvedt, R-Kalispell. “And it isn’t going to work.” Read the rest in “State deals with worries over worms” in the Daily InterLake. By…

‎”At some point we must draw a line across the ground of our home and our being, drive a spear into the land and say to the bulldozers, earthmovers, government and corporations, “thus far and no further.” If we do not, we shall later feel, instead of pride, the regret of Thoreau, that good but overly-bookish man, who wrote, near the end of his life, “If I repent of anything it is likely to be my good behaviour.”

Edward Abbey

“The continued existence of wildlife and wilderness is important to the quality of life of humans.”

Jim Fowler

“Our forests offer much more than just beautiful landscapes and wildlife. Each one has a different story to tell.”
