OOPS, it isn't the numbers on a voting list that gets things from government, it is the money they contribute to their cause that turns the wheels!
And the Guides and Outfitters Association of BC are very good contributers, thus powerful lobbiests
$17500 in 2013 donated to the liberals. That's not much in the grand scheme of things, considering they (the liberals) raised $10 million in 2015. That's about 0.175%. Practically not even noticeable at the end of the day. (I am aware those are two different years and thus not the best comparison)
my wife missed a wolf two years shooting around 160m on a running one two times .... better to have scope on .... but i agree, i love to see them and there is not a year that we do not see or hear some ....I know wen I see them I'm to happy and excited and forget I have a rifle it's not every day you run into a wolf well hunting
What can I say I like Wolfs maybe next time I'll remember I'm hunting and bag one lol

Vegetarian.....old Indian word for poor hunter!!![]()
Nothing like a good wolf thread to create lively discussion.We haven't heard from the CGN police yet however on the pertinent laws and which ones have been broken.
I was out on the quad yesterday and passed through an old sand pit about a mile from the house. The sand was packed in places with timber wolf tracks, they had been digging large holes in the sand for some reason. Perhaps my learned friend "Freeordie" who does research etc. could shed some light on that.
Where the books show Mowat admiring the Inuit for being at one with nature, his journal shows him angry at the one Inuk he actually goes hunting with. “The deer were within range and [Ohoto] fired 3 times killing 3 does,” Mowat says in an entry of July 31. “His oft repeated boast that he never shot does and fawns went up the spout in the face of (a) his craving for meat, and (b) his basic urge to kill deer whenever possible.” Farther down in the same entry, Mowat writes, “We had trouble convincing Ohoto that when he shoots a deer he doesn’t just cut off a few pounds of meat and leave the rest, trusting to shoot another on the morrow. Made him cut it all up.”
Need a change from wolves?
How about what Farley actually recorded in his journal about Inuit hunting practices:
Sort of like the "surplus killing" some wolves indulge in eh? And I always thought aboriginals were natural born environmentalists.
And I'd bet money old Hardly Know-it never ate a single damn mouse either.
We're conditioned from birth to be afraid of wolfs, hence we hate them. Remember "Little Red Riding Hood" and "The Three Little Pigs"

I remember all of that. I don't hate them, I think they're beautiful animals......until they eat my best friend, then they're gettin it.
The pigs, or Little Red?
Because believe it or not they can and do take livestock and will kill indiscrimnately. You tell anyone who has seen multiple kills never fed upon they dont kill indiscriminately and you'll be a laughing stock. I knew a farmer in Matheson, Ont who lost 23 sheep/lambs in one night to wolves. And though I have never been witness to a multiple deer kill site my Grandfather has a few times. Back in the 40's when he was a dam tender at Frederickhouse Lake he once came across 11 deer killed on the ice by a wolf pack. He said none had been fed upon or were the rest of the winter except by ravens and fox. He hated the damned things.
By killing inferior animals wolves increase the health of there prey
