Most of the WY residents I know see it the same way I do. It isn’t about how long a person has been here. I live here all year, pay taxes here all year, vote here, spend money here all year. Those things give residents the ability to influence how we manage our resources. I see our big game animals as a finite resource. I see the space in our mountains and desert as a finite resource. I see NR hunters as competitors and if I can help it the amount of them allowed to hunt will be severely limited. I’m not absolutely against NR hunting, hell, I’m probably going to NM next year for Barb. But why wouldn’t I want to have fewer NR hunters competing for the finite resources I mentioned? New Mexico could change it up and start charging $1,500 for a Barb license, that would change my plans but I wouldn’t cry about it. It would be their right to do that if they chose. They owe me nothing. I don’t live, vote or pay taxes in NM. I plan to go down for a week and will not be dumping large amounts of money into the NM economy. I’ll probably eat at a couple of restaurants and might spend a night or two in a cheap motel. I’ll buy a little gas and groceries. If they’d rather keep their limited space free of me and would rather fewer NR take Barb., that’s their prerogative.
