Lots of dogs go missing every year in Alaska and can often be traced to their tracks intersecting with the wolves out on the river. At least two of my friends dogs went that way, and a couple of other bigger dogs came back with injuries. Dogs and wolves don't mix well, for the dog anyway.
Yes — while lots more dogs go missing everywhere, and can often be traced to their tracks intersecting with the motor vehicles out on the roadways. Drivers and dogs don’t mix well, either.

Owls and eagles grab what they can as well(cats). Just the nature of things.

Dogs run deer here and they get shot as well. Basically any dog running down the hwy gets shot. running dogs used to bad here to the point the forestry was out here shooting them as well and my brother and I shot many in the fall especially. Black bears ate them in spring though so no waste.
once I shot a couple of bucks that were being chasing by dogs but I let the first couple of dogs go by cuz I could here more running. Bucks were following a doe in heat.
I did get one dog though after I filled the tags.

Yep no shame, I’ll help push hunting in any state over anti hunting regardless of how often I get to hunt it, I’m invested in Wyo, Az, Mt. All of which are cutting NR tags but if I can help there by commenting I will and do
Actually MT has increased them.

I havent seen anyone mention just how political this is. Reading this article and dping a little research, it is way more politcial than just colorado politics. It looks like the same people funding the downfall of American society, also funded the downfall of Colorado elk numbers.

Wish this article could have been published before the vote, it was a one sided slaughter in Co, the blue book notes opposing the reintroduction were about as lame as it gets, the pro woofers crushed those who think reintroduction was a bad idea.

Well they had a former senator from Montana with the funding of George Soros. Would be hard to compete with them. Thats if our votes are even counted properly in Colorado, which many people have strong suspicions about.

Familiar with the area?
Yep, born and raised in Tennessee. Be driving through Tullahoma in a few weeks heading back to visit. Used to deer hunt quite a bit on and around AEDC.

Disarm society, bankrupt it, reduce people's ability to feed themselves are all points that actually align well with the Cloward and Piven strategy intended to give people no choice but to be reliant on the government, for everything.

To the left, we shouldn't mess with nature, unless it serves a political agenda, and all of their compassionate actions are done for hidden purposes. If a con man comes to your door, you tell them to go away, but the government does it and they keep getting invited inside for tea and cookies.

So in the event that elk populations show a decrease of more than 25% in the next few years do you think they’ll implement a plan to manage the wolves ?
Absolutely not, they will just cut tags for humans, which has been their plan from the start. Would have to find the wording but basically where wolves establish packs they will manage the herd 10-15% over current objectives to ensure the wolves get fed, where do you think that 15% less fatalities will come from? You guessed it hunting tags. Saw some where that few that are out already ran through a group of 5-9 pregnant cow elk that a rancher found… so it’s started, won’t be super super bad for a few years, but if you do the math every female has litters of 5-10 pups, currently not a lot of predators on the land scape for them so in a hand full of year they grow their numbers quick

Thats the thing and another point of contention. There is NO plan.

This state is riding the wire and failing to follow the mistakes of other states (ID, MT, MN, etc)

Nope. They'll do a 5-year-plan answer where after 5 years they'll start "collecting input" on the problem, but decide to do nothing right away, in 10 years they'll do something ineffective, then in 15 years they'll be too late.
