Mountain Lion Hunting Ban Filed in Colorado

A ballot proposal that could ban mountain lion hunting and bobcat hunting in Colorado was filed on Friday.

Another liberal utopia. I expect it to pass since people are so uneducated about wildlife nowadays. They make decisions that will have no effect on themselves.

Here it comes. Californication. Unbelievable

Ever seen a ballot inniative to maintain the right to hunt or repeal a previous anti hunting measure?

Of course not. Sit on our thumbs and this what happens.

Best part is the hippies on the frontrange will feel it soon enough, heck that cat last year picked off like 10-20 pups in Rollinsville in a matter of weeks. But call it “trophy hunting” and lie about how hounds are unethical, and how it serves no purpose and it’s all over but the crime

the hardest hunt I’ve ever been on is a hound hunt for a lion. We ran out of water, 2 guys thought they weren’t going to make it and drank out of a creek. Both got giardia a week later. We were on our hands and knees crawling under manzanita. It was truly terrible. We got to the dogs and the idiots had treed a bear!

Start by telling every family, friend, coworker, and acquaintance to vote no! Don’t assume they know!

We really need to get grizzly reintroduction on the front range on the ballot.

Drop them off a CU Boulder. I mean, they used to live there and humans encroached on their homes. Bring them back. Drop half off on the San Francisco peninsula too. Some of the biggest bears ever lived there!

This shit makes me so angry.

Since I am non-resident with little to no say in this matter, I would just ask that all you Colorado residents get off your ass and go vote when this makes it to the ballot. So we don’t have another wolf re-introduction, where nobody thought it was going to get through so the turnout was low.

Also, if there’s some type of campaign against this soon to be ballot measure. Please let me know I will gladly donate.

 

[RyanT26]

I’ll spread the word to all that will listen, but I’ll wait for Meateater, REMF, MDF , Derek Wolfe, Cam Hanes , and the rest of the celebs to step up and put some effort against it. This crap is all forms of colonialism, need some tribal leaders to step up and speak out… gotta fight fire with fire

Lol. If they can’t make a buck off of it, I wouldn’t hold your breath to hear from them on the matter.

Hope this dies before it gets legs

And CPW staff cant comment on ballot measures

Drop em off in the ski towns too.

Wait, I thought there was no leftest attack on Hunting in the US?

Absolutely hilarious and par for the course in Colorado these days. Also hilarious when a mountain lion was just spotted on the 20th a few blocks from Pearl St. mall in Boulder. I'm sure D. Wolfes super public mountain lion hunt really helped the cause here in Colorado. Unfortunately I think my home state is just gone.

 

[justin davis]

Bunch of lies in there too. We can’t hunt lynx. It’s also against the law to not harvest the meat. I hope the bill dies. Otherwise we got to stand together and fight it

I live kinda inbetween Boulder and Ft. Collins, and probably once a week while my fiance is on NextDoor there are reports of lions in subdivisions, parking lots, etc. Further and further east too. I take them with a grain of salt considering how many people that hunt can't even identify what their trail cam is photographing, but I figure at least some of them are legit.

Leaving wildlife management decisions up to the largely un-informed electorate is a massive slap in the face to hard working game biologists and sportsmen alike.

Sad to see!

Theres a good play open if they want to get Trump haters on board. I hope they don't figure it out because then it will be a 15 point win if they do.

Hunting is under a full blown assault here in Colorado between this ballot initiative and the Gov’s appointments to the CPW commission. Hunters need to get organized fast and kick off some serious fundraising and outreach efforts. To all those that said it would never happen, just more alarmist conspiracy theories, well you are in denial and dead wrong. I urge everyone to get engaged.

California. Always the easy out. How long will people continue to believe "it won't happen here?"
