Wyoming G&F, how de we get a voice as NR's?

[wapitibob]

It's funny seeing guys complain about wyoming deer elk and antelope.

The amount of tags has not changed for those but it's harder to get tags because all the nr posting on the gram how great the hunting is and some how it's wyoming residents fault

2017; 56,445 Pronghorn license quota

2024; 30,155

2017 Deer; 40,265 quota

Going cold blind.

Here it is.

If you are not a resident of Wyoming, I do not care what you think. I am not a resident of Wyoming, I was born in Wyoming and grew up hunting there until I joined the service over 32 years ago. I still hunt Wyoming as a non-resident when I can draw tags.

Anyone who complains about the non-resident wilderness rule is cry baby who probably doesn't hunt wilderness in their own state. Most use it as a reason to complain about Wyoming.

The wildlife belongs to the state of Wyoming in a trust. The Supreme Court has decided that Wyoming and other states can manage non-migratory wildlife how they wish. So stop crying.

How would you people like it if the people of Wyoming came to your state and demanded 20-40 percent of the tags?

There are states that some species are only open to residents, this is a thing in Nebraska, Kansas and North Dakota.

How would you like it if Wyoming closed all species except elk, deer and antelope to you?

Wyoming is crazy generous to non-residents. Don't be a dick about it, the people of Wyoming are tired of this BS.

If you want to hunt Wyoming, move to Wyoming.

Also know that it is not the paradise you think it is. Wildlife numbers are way down. They have not been good for deer and antelope since 30 years ago.

There is serious competition behind every sage brush. Stop crying.

And have the application numbers decreased?

Isn't quota based on wildlife counts?

So this number is not very relative.

Bad counts lower numbers.

In Montana they don't adjust quotas until 3 or 4 years too late.

At least Wyoming does that right.
