Default A special thanks to idfw for all the elk

Just wanted to say thanks idfw for doing nothing about the growing numbers of wolfs.i have hunted northeastern oregon for 15 years now,basicaly the same area we had no moose and now i saw 2 different moose in 14 days,the area i hunted i saw very few elk in the last 15 years and if i was lucky enough to see elk all the bulls had the well know oregon g 3 (small)how ever this year and last i saw more elk than every before all bulls with good g 3'si bet i saw over 2 to 300 elk in a area that had very little elk for the last 13 years.little bulls to 360+ bullys all over the place.every one i talked to saw elk this year.i called idfw and ask for a opinion if all these elk are idaho elk being pushed across the river to oregon and idfw said yes without a doubt thay are idaho elk.also saw one wolf(not good)however the elk hunting in oregon should get better and better.a special thanks to idaho.

Althought this didn't border Oregon, Thousands of square miles of Idaho elk country burned last year(I think it was last year). I would guess this caused a big shift in the population distribution and could have contributed to this as well.

The places that we need to start our wolf populations are on Burnside, Portland Oregon and Capitol Way Salem Oregon. We don't need them messing up our pristine wilderness areas. If you want proof ask "Little Red," she'll damn sure tell ya! More recent proof lookup wolf attacks North America. And yes I don't need your osama attitudes. And the change I want should be left in my pocket.
God Bless!!!
