WDFW Killing Five Month Old Puppies Along With Their Family…SHAME!!!
More death, more killing..all for agribusiness.
Nice going WDFW, you’re giving Washington state quite the reputation. It makes me sick to think the packs four babies are either dead or will be soon. Don’t weep Wolf Warriors, get active!! How about a protest to let WDFW know how you feel about their cowardly act!!!
The wolves were slaughtered just seven miles from the Canadian border, I’m sure running for their lives. If only they were a little closer to the border. Their territory extends into Canada, I hope what’s remaining of the pack keeps on going and hides from these killers.
Why are cows trumping wolves on public land? Retire grazing leases!! Stop catering to cattle barons, they don’t own this country and they don’t own our public lands. I don’t care how long they’ve been grazing their cows on America’s land, they need to take their stream polluting, methane producing gas bags (no disrespect to cows, they are not at fault) and high-tail it back to their own property and leave the wolves and our other native carnivores alone. The only way to make this happen is if the American people wake up from their long sleep and speak out!!

State kills 3 more Wedge Pack wolves today
Department Director Phil Anderson said a WDFW marksman shot the wolves from a helicopter at about 8 a.m. The wolves were shot about seven miles south of the U.S.-Canada border in the same area where two other wolves from the Wedge Pack were killed by aerial gunning yesterday.

I just called the office of the governor in Washington and they took my call as just a number in a poll. I asked who I can talk to and they sent me to Fish and Wildlife… but they never listen and are just police mindlessly doing their job and g=following orders, right or wrong. they don’t weigh it. So I asked who is above them and was told a panel of commissioners decide the fate of the wolves. Here is the phone number for Fish and Wildlife for now and I’ll call to try to get the contact for this ridiculous commission of idiots. This panel needs to see our comments, and you know what? We should be this panel. It is our tax dollars paying these bureaucrats to destroy all that we hold as sacred and dear be it our wolves, our food freedoms, out h]freedom to choose our health practices and supplements, our constitutional rights being upheld, and so on. Seldom are the policies and decisions made by these puffed up bureaucrats who deem themselves judge, jury, rulers, overlords, and executioners implement is or ever has been for our greater good of earth, animals, nature, our people and our country.

I just called and spoke to someone. He gave me the website about their decision making regarding the Gray wolves bring killed from the Wedge Pack.
He refused to help me communicate with this “commission”
http://www.WEFW.wa.gov
He only seemed ton state that their main concern is for the human population over the predator population’s rights to their original habitat. that cattle and people who are stealing this habitat come first and foremost. they did kill all of the Wedge Pack bWolves and he said they’re introducing wolves who don’t yet have a taste for cattle to other parts of Washington. He said that once wolves got the taste for cattle and calves they no longer tried to hunt the moose, deer and caribou any longer. So logically, people who have ranches in those areas need to have enough money to create proper fencing electric or other and not to kill wolves because they;re too poor to do what is right or too lazy to care.
If anyone knows the saga of what happen when official had allowed and or ordered all of the wolves in Yellowstone Park many years ago, and what devastation followed turning it almost into a baron wasteland, we need to get this fact through the thick resistance of these who are dooming the wolves which will not only rob us of their place with our own in the scheme of creation but will create and initiate a domino effect in the eco system. when the predators are gone the moose, etc numbers grow out of control. hence these foraging creatures eat all of the bark and limbs and leave off of the trees and shrubbery leaving no way of achieving the brilliant balance that the infinite intelligence of nature has left for us to respect, honor and hold as sacred.
As soon as they reintroduced a pack of wolves all began to come back and flourish and has ever since.

The gunner and pilot in the helicopter probably had a lot of practice on wolves in Idaho and Montana. Example – Eleven wolves from the Lochsa Pack were aerially gunned this past winter by order of IDFG because these wolves dared to eat elk – not acceptable. The Lochsa wolves were shot in a Wilderness area where there is no cattle grazing or ranchers, but there are selfish, arrogant big game outfitters who despise wolves.
Wolves are and will continue to be slaughtered because the expense of the aircraft, the pilots, the gunner have to be justified to someone. These entities are hoping that wolves kill livestock or in the case of Idaho – eat elk. How do we stop this madness? Wolves need some friends in high places and they don’t seem to have any – not the people who helped put Obama in office and as a result, wolves are worse off than ever under Ken Salazar at Interior and Dan Ashe at USFWS.

Everything you said is dead on Resist. There are so many wolf packs who’ve been slaughtered since the reintroduction that most die without anyone knowing they even existed. Washington is shining a bright light on the shameful practice of killing wolves for agribusiness.They are siding with the ranchers, the majority of whom notoriously hate wolves and think they are entitled to a predator free landscape. They feel so entitled they have the nerve to demand native wolves eliminated on our public lands while they continue on their merry way practicing the Columbus Method of grazing “Let em loose in the Spring and discover em in the fall?” The only way any of this is going to change is if the American people wake up and realize we are losing our public lands and native wildlife. We need a sea change, a paradigm shift in how these lands are managed. Public land grazing must be eliminated, there should be no compromise on this!

You’d think that since we humans are ment to be the more intelligent & superior species, we would look at every possible option as a solution, to any conflict that may arise between man & wolf before making the decission to take a life of an innocent, with the added possibility of destroying a family/pack. Saddly instead of working on a way to sort out a viable solution, it seems that the easiest option is always taken and that is ‘kill, kill kill’, regardless of the concequences!!!
To say that i am sickened & disgusted by the attitude against wolves worldwide is an understatement!!!

Anatolian sheep dogs have worked in South Africa, where they protect livestock from Cheetahs and Leopard. Some have been exported to the USA to keep wolves at bay, and from what I have been able to ascertain, they have also been successful.
The main problem is people who for some reason or other hate wolves. I think that the Americans should write to their representatives and try and befriend them and eventually persuade them to get the wolves re-enlisted. Unfortunately this will only be able to start next year, after the elections, but It does not take that long and I am sure it will have some success, providing that the letters are friendly and yet persuasive.

One thing we can all do, is cultivate a friendship with our congressman. I wrote to Joe Donnelly, 2nd District Indiana, who unfortunately is not in one of the wolf killing states as far as I know, and below is an extract from his reply. From his figures below, there are an unbelievable number of animals and plants that are listed on the Endangered Species Act (P.L. 93-205). Congress passed this in 1973, and the wolves were taken off it when?
“I believe Americans must be good stewards of our environment and wildlife. Unfortunately, an increasing number of animal and plant species are facing possible extinction. The most common cause of extinction is habitat loss due to development, changes in land management practices, competition from invasive species, and other factors. If we fail to protect endangered and threatened species, we will be doing a great disservice to ourselves and those who will come after us.”
“Currently, there are 1,163 animals species and 796 plant species listed as either endangered or threatened under the Endangered Species Act (P.L. 93-205), which Congress passed in 1973. The Endangered Species Act (ESA) was a comprehensive attempt to protect species at risk of extinction and to make habitat protection an integral part of that effort. The authorization for spending under ESA expired on October 1, 1992. However, the prohibitions and requirements of ESA remain in force, even in the absence of reauthorization, and funds have been appropriated to implement the administrative provisions of ESA in each subsequent fiscal year. ESA reauthorization remains on the legislative agenda and bills focusing on threatened or endangered species continue to be introduced each Congress.”
“Rest assured, if legislation concerning endangered species comes to the floor of the House of Representatives for a vote, I will be sure to keep your thoughts in mind.”

i certainly hope that all the people who care about the wolves are vegan themselves, follow the Golden Rule for ALL species and do not contribute to the violence, suffering, pollution and environmental devastation inherent in ALL forms of animal agriculture.
“Aren’t humans amazing? They kill wildlife – birds, deer, all kinds of cats, coyotes, beavers, groundhogs, mice and foxes by the million in order to protect their domestic animals and their feed. Then they kill domestic animals by the billion and eat them. This in turn kills people by the million, because eating all those animals leads to degenerative – and fatal – health conditions like heart disease, stroke, kidney disease, and cancer. So then humans spend billions of dollars torturing and killing millions more animals to look for cures for these diseases. Elsewhere, millions of other human beings are being killed by hunger and malnutrition because food they could eat is being used to fatten domestic animals. Meanwhile, few people recognize the absurdity of humans, who kill so easily and violently, and once a year send out cards praying for “Peace on Earth.”~Revised Preface to Old MacDonald’s Factory Farm by C.

Death on A Factory Farm aired on HBO about 3 years ago, it was a pig farm and the most horrendous things were going on there.

The hens live in such horrific conditions, squeezed into tiny cages, de-beaked, not able to spread their wings or move around, living in darkness, never seeing the sun or feel the touch of human kindness, their life is a horror show. The same with the dairy industry, I could barely watch those little calves being punched to death, or those cretins jabbing the udders of cows who are unable to move or get away from them. I’ve read stories of animals freezing onto the sides of the death trucks in winter, then when delivered to the slaughterhouses, monsters rip them off the sides of the truck, leaving their skin behind. Pigs thrown into vats of hot water while still alive and jumping out of the vats on the killing floor being chased by their slave owners to put them back into the boiling water. I don’t understand how people who know this is going on can turn their backs and continue to eat meat. I have to admit I eat eggs but I have my own pet chickens and do not buy eggs from any source. My hens roam my entire property, they sit in the sun, they commune with each other, they have a pecking order, they love cantaloupe and watermelon, they are just as much my pets as my dog or cat. I love them and am grateful to them for giving me eggs. When they no longer are able to lay eggs they enjoy the same good life. Two of my hens lived to the ripe old ages of thirteen and fourteen, long past their laying days.

Here is what I wrote:
“To: The Heroes Of Earthjustice;
We have volatile situation and many
of our like-minded wolf supporters need your help
in seeking justice against the Washington Department
Of Fish & Wildlife (WDFW) for the assassination of the Wedge Pack,
just to appease one lazy, greedy, self-centered, stuck-up,
redneck cattle rancher who won’t use non-lethal and humane
methods to protect his stock from predators,
and among other things,
this rancher is allowing his cattle to graze on public
national forest land, and we want this rancher held
legally accountable for violations of the Endangered Species Act,
by hiring aerial gunmen from the WDFW to render the Wedge Pack extinct.
This rancher, IMHO, has no business of allowing his cattle to
graze on public and national forest lands in the first place
and he should also pay the price
for his own arrogance and flagrant disregard for wildlife’s right to exist.
I have written to the governor three times and it appears that
she has chosen to sweep the issue under the rug and ignore
the vast majority who wanted all of our wolves left alone.
And so, I think the governor should also be held accountable
for her failure or refusal to stop the massacre of the Wedge Pack.
All six of our wolf brothers of the Wedge Pack are now martyrs,
and it’s imperative to see that their deaths are not in vain.
Therefore, I strongly recommend taking legal action against
Washington’s governor, WDFW, and the rancher for their
actions and inactions that led to the extinction of the Wedge Pack.
Currently, plans for an economic and tourist boycott of Washington
are underway as a result of the needless death of
an entire wolf pack, a direct and flagrant violation
of the Endangered Species Act when ALL wolves in WA
are supposed to be protected under the law…
And the state knowingly and willingly, broke the law…
This is where we, as the vast majority of
wolf and wildlife like-minds alike,
desperately need your help
in holding these bloodthirsty parties legally
(and criminally) responsible for the needless
death of the Wedge Pack in NE Washington,
and taking necessary measures that no other

that’s been committed by a rogue government agency
and a selfish and greedy cattle rancher.
I know that you’re doing the best you can

(in which by law, are supposed to be protected under the ESA)
and a plan or conspiracy to massacre the remaining pack,
based on lies and hate-mongering from one stupid cattle rancher.
Because of this, the beef industry shall also be boycotted as well.
(personally, I’m a vegetarian, and thus I stopped eating meat in 1984)
This brutal act, just to appease one irresponsible redneck cattle rancher
who has no regard for God’s creations whatsoever,
is an act of treason against the will
of the vast majority who want our wolves and other wildlife left alone,
and because of this outrage, I (along with a multitude of wildlife like-minds worldwide)
will not do business with, nor travel to/vacation, nor purchase products that come from
the state of Washington, and the boycott shall extend into Idaho,
Montana, Wyoming, Utah, Wisconsin, Michigan, Minnesota, Iowa, and Alaska.
Wolves have been on this Earth long before man even existed,
and the Creator put them here for a reason.
It is the RANCHER who encroached upon the wolves’ territory,
not the other way around…
And therefore, IMHO, it would be in the best interest for
the state and our wild animal kingdom,
if this self-centered, anti-wildlife cattle baron sell his ranch,
take his cattle and narrow-minded redneck attitude, leave the state of Washington,
and relocate elsewhere to raise his stock, and never again,
be allowed to graze his cattle on public lands and national forests at taxpayers’ expense!
We, The People, expect our tax dollars to be invested into preserving ALL public lands for
wildlife (includinge wolves) and tourists who revere them
with awe and wonder, as the Lord’s creations.
Not to be squadered to pander to a greedy wild-west wacko
with a ruthless mentality of Old West.
This is 2012 A.D., not 1892.
The 19th Century is in the past and it should be left in the past!
Please take this issue and my message with great seriousness.
The only way to end our boycott of products and tourism in WA,
is to end this senseless bloodshed and stop killing our wolves immediately
and abide by the laws in the Endangered Species Act,
reform or dissolve WDFW, outlaw cattle grazing on public lands,
and ban trophy hunting and trapping forever!!!
Let’s make the 21st Century look more like the 21st Century
and revere ALL creation as very sacred,
as the Great Spirit intended to be in the first place..
Not regress back to the barbaric 19th!
Thank You…

And this is my send letter to the governor after I read
that she stepped out from her office…
As you can see, I was disgusted, and right now,
I’m beyond “disgusted”….
I’m outraged!!!
Here’s what I wrote:
“Governor;
I hope you realize that if you continue to skirt the issue
and continue to allow the reckless slayings of God’s precious
creations (which is our wolves), you would be just as guilty for the same
crimes against Nature as the gunmen who now murdered 6 of our brothers.
Not only your state’s economy and reputation will suffer
stemmed from the boycott, your political career and reputation
will also suffer, because you have wasted thousands of taxpayer dollars
on this pork-barrel boondoggle and not only will you have to answer unto the Creator,
the state’s sharpshooters will also have to stand in the shadows of Great Spirit’s justice
and face the ultimate consequences when He renders His final Judgment!
Please remember that every wolf that was brutally taken from
this world, we revere as martyrs for the noble cause to put
a stop to the hunting and trapping of these sacred creatures.
And I’m also clearly, and boldly, reminding you that I
will not do business, vacation, nor buy products from any state
that condones these outdated acts of animal cruelty.
If these such cruel acts spread across this nation, then I would have to
boycott my own country…The United States Of America,
and purchase products that come from friendly places
such as parts of Europe, or perhaps the Caribbean
and/or Pacific islands, or maybe Central and/or South America,
OR simply go on a hunger strike and die of starvation,
because of the arrogance, greed, and stupidity of the states’ governments
and their incompentent agencies with their uncaring attitudes towards
all that is revered sacred and you know that not only the whole
world is watching, but the Creator is also watching,
and to this day, He is very angry for what these hunters are
doing to our wolves and other wildlife in which He made for
all generations to revere with awe and wonder.
I hope that you’ll find it in your heart and soul,
the wisdom and common sense to end this barbaric bloodbath against Nature,
evict that ruthless, greedy, self-centered rancher from the public land
and he can either take his livestock with him, or sell it off, and move elsewhere.
And the E-Coli plague that’s spoiled the meat, is clearly a result
of Great Spirit’s wrath and anger, because of the senseless killings
of His natural wonders to appease a mere handful of greedy
corporate “welfare” ranchers and redneck idol-worshipers…
It only goes to show that no one can defy the will of our Creator..
And no mortal man is superior nor above the Almighty!
For HE is still in charge of all things and only HE
decides what stays and what goes…NOT MAN.
PLEASE, in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit,
stop killing our wolves and leave them alone in peace.”

And last but not least, after learning that the entire pack
is now extinct, my anger boiled over as I sent the governor
a stinging message last night:
“Governor, I’m writing to you again, this time to express
my outrage for your failure to stop WDFW’s brutal attack upon our wolves!!!
Because of this, WDFW shall forever be haunted with guilt and regret
and cursed with bad karma!!
Let this be known that the pain they’ve inflicted upon God’s creations,
is the pain that they shall suffer, two, to a thousand-fold!
This, what I say unto you, is not a threat..
It is a prophecy and a curse!
And that lazy, greedy rancher shall also pay dearly with his soul,
when the Creator renders His final Judgment!!
Because of this outrage,
the boycott of Washington’s
products, services, and tourism shall take effect immediately!!
If your state’s economy suffers,
it’ll be because of the barbaric actions of the ruthless
WDFW and one stupid lazy redneck country-bumpkin
who won’t take the extra time to properly protect his stock!!
Am I angry, YES!!!
Because of this, YOU and the WDFW, and that dumb cattle rancher,
shall forever be put to shame!!”

I came up with an expression about 6 years ago at least that I call these [usually wealthy] ranchers that can lease federal money for a fraction of what they should be paying to graze on land they don’t belong and that is welfare ranching/grazing [un]rights. This concerning originally the buffalo with bfc with some of these same despicable states. It’s all bs and there is a petition out there to get rid of Salazar and get someone pro wildlife in his position and I want to see another petition specifically targeting welfare ranchers and telling the feds we don’t want them on our land. It reduces the leasr money of what they are willing to pay private land owners as well as is harmful to wildlife. One of these states is trying to open up hunting and trapping in state parks [I think Wis] could go on and on, you got a fb page????????
