Suzanne Stone is a cunt. Sorry, just had to say it.

The introduction was illegal Ms. Stone, why weren't your worried about that? Why of course there is no money in that was there?

The science is what it is, the science of introduction has never been PROVEN to be insufficient, just claiming otherwise is not based on science.

Ms. Stone is a bald faced liar. There is nothing in the EIS or 50 CFR Part 17 that stated anything she claims, those are the LAWS, and they do state that 100 wolves is to be considered a recovered population of wolves to be delisted and managed. It is exactly this type of bald faced lie that has lead to the continued moving of the goal post with no scientific basis.

She makes her living off of lying, and promoting wolves and lawsuits.

Experts prior to introduction recommended wolves from the Mid West as they were more representative of the native wolves.

Not based on science Ms. Stone.....could that be because they rewrote the science? Decades of prior science was scrubbed to promote the 'new' truth that just so happened to be written by pro wolf biologist's, pretty convenient.

Jon Racheal is an ass covering corrupt puke. He was a huge part of bringing this dog into Idaho, he has overseen the destruction of our once great game herds. Ms. Stone is a leaching wolf loving idiot.

Racheal's claim of the same wolf is BS and of course not one mention that wolves were planted into NW Montana. Migration my ass!

Just more ass covering by the people who from the guilty.

This wolf introduction is a "fleecing of america." F&G and enviromentalist push this through against the recommendation of our legislators to get wolves on the endangered species list. The agreement was 300 wolves and 28 breading pairs and we all new that once this started they were going to up the numbers. Their goal is to stop hunting....period. They will likely succeed because they are using are F&G and Forest Service dollars as well as their own financial backing. We have nothing. BS!!

Then good for you. Come back and get more of them! I live in one of the area where wolves have been taking familly pets that live outside and calves get taken right after birth. NOBODY admits this happens, but it does all the time. Imagine waking up to find your dog in CHUNKS one morning. Since the season opened this happens less and less. We were not asking for extinction but a slowing of the population explosion.

We have took some in Indiana! Law does not allow us anymore!

[firedudest4]

I believe Butch Otter offered any wolves to any other state that wanted them. No takers...... SO... tough. If you want them come get them otherwise don't complain when we handle them.

What's happening in Idaho is not wolf management but total annihilation. Shooting whole packs of wolves including pregnant females and pups is not sport but a massacre!
