Game wardens are getting to be just like doctors.
Lots of new jeniffers recently in the DOW.
The experienced hands are being run off by the urban liberals with no real world experience.
jeniffer is out of control.
Someone’s child will get killed because of her and her pals

Xenia Endres?
xeniast is a fellow freeper
Was just curious.
Thanks
"She said the lion, which did not pose a public safety risk..."
How is it that a mountain lion running around a densely populated neighborhood hunting and killing prey does "not pose a public safety risk?" I happen to live in this neighborhood and I have a 4 year old child, one of many young kids in this neighborhood. That the Division of Wildlife could be so thickheaded as to even say something like this is very worrisome. I love nature, mountain lions included, but I must take issue with public officials saying such clearly ridiculous things. Really, how dumb do you think the 'general public' is? A mountain lion hunting and killing prey in an urban neighborhood IS ABSOLUTELY a public safety risk, by any definition.
Oh.
Goody.
Another cat, not afraid of humans, set loose on a different neighborhood.
Even if they put it way in the wilds, what if some hiker comes upon it (or vice versa)?
Stupid, stupid, stupid.
LOL! (cat)
Illogic, the PERFECT term for that one.
Wow! Is that your pic? Is the eagle picking up the fox or dropping him? That little bird on the right side of the pic is like, “Holy crap, I’m outta here!” LOL.
No, just a pic I cam across. The “little bird” is about the same size as a crow. Sure looks like the eagle is picking him up to me.
Sounds like the mountain lion isn't the only cougar here.
Incredible!
A very short female jogs above Evergreen, Co. I kept suggesting she carry the .38/.357 snubbie. Whether she does or not, hopefully will not ever be an issue of life or death for her.
On second thought, perhaps “an issue of life or death” should be replaced by “an issue of life or dinner” to be more accurate. There are reasons she may be dinner for a cat.
When gunpowder speaks, beasts obey - true for two AND four legged predators.
As for two legged social predators in agencies like the Colorado Department of Wildlifelike PumaPerson Churchill, so long as Americans are comfortable with allowing mere beasts to eye people as food, we will have puma problems.
PumaPersons, A.K.A. PantherPanderers, CougarCoddelers, ad nasueam, will spend every last paycheck we allow them to extort from us.
As is the case with all government agencies that have been allowed to expand beyond their constitutional bounds, the only real cure is reducing the agency size and firing staff.
Start by firing Jennifer Churchill. Fire the “scientists” fattening themselves on the “Front Range Mountain Lion Study”.
For well over a century, men lived in the Front Range area with no cat problems, repeat NO CAT PROBLEMS ! ! !
Why were there no cats attacking people back then and now there are problem cats all over? The answer is simple. Before animal nutcakes, such as now infest the DOW, got police powers to “Protect That Cat!” citizens shot the cats whenever the cats were deemed a risk by the citizen.
Since such cats are what biologists term “ambush predators”, such predators know what prey they are attacking. There are no ‘mistaken identity’ attacks on humans by mountain lions. Such predators had been conditioned to recognize man as dangerous.
Until the likes of “LionLover” Churchill were given police powers, mountain lions knew to stay out of sight of humans. Any human, any where, any time, was something such cats (and wolves, bears, coyotes) learned from the first days of their life to avoid on pain of death.
From Florida, where Lil’ Debbie tried to produce an Eden in the Everglades to the Front Range, all attempts to produce a people and pet safe predator that is not afraid of humans have failed.
All such attempts must fail.
History, and real science, make transparently clear what happened when Americans gave to Fast Food Rejects like the Lil’ Debbies, and the Jennifer Churchills in the Wildlife Agencies police powers.
Those Fast Food Rejects abused that police power when they infringed the citizen’s Constitutional Right to kill such predators whenever said citizen thought a predator was a risk to their life and/or property.
There is a core conflict of interest behind the beady eyes of every AgencyPerson. If the AgencyPerson were to recognize the citizen’s Constitutional Right to kill a potentially dangerous predator, there would be no need for said Agencyperson.
Instead of a well funded (with your tax dollars!) Five Year Plan dubbed the “Front Range Mountain Lion Study”, those bureau-scientists might well have to take a job in the Fast Food Industry.
Keeping that government paycheck is what motivates the bureau-scientist. In that, they are no different than any AgencyPerson. Agency employment is the only place where no results are demanded by the boss.
Which raises the question of whether bureau-scientists and other such AgencyPersons could survive in the fast food industry. Perhaps they really are Fast Food Rejects?
Back to Jennifer Churchill’s “Spanking the Cat” theory. She is really trying to create a cat which can live peacefully alongside humans. She, and other Liberals like her, are attempting to turn the Front Range into a “Garden of Eden”.
The Liberals failed.
What was created was not a Garden of Eden, where man and lion lived in peace together, but a place where the lions assumed the role of top predator and enjoyed the new food supply - people and pets. Not to mention lots of cattle, horses, and deer, elk, and sheep beyond counting.
Should you doubt the inclusion of people in the diet of the newly designated “Top Predator”, ask Scott Lancaster’s mother about this issue. Her son was run down, mauled, killed and eaten within sight of his high school while the school was in secession.
The cats no longer live in fear of man, but somehow the Front Range is full of people living in fear of cats. That, in my opinion, is a perversion of what America is about.
That fear is the direct result of conditions created by AgencyPersons who infringed our Constitutional Right to self preservation.
Fear is the only product of all that money wasted on the AgencyPersons fattening themselves on “Front Range Mountain Lion Study” funds.
For you Boulder Liberals, and you know who you are, consider that the creation of any ‘Garden of Eden’, in Boulder, or anywhere, is going to have to wait for something rather more wise and with powers rather greater than some assortment of mere AgencyPersons.
Jenny means “rubber buckshot”.
Jenny really is protecting her job, nothing more. If people are killed by a cat she “spanked” instead of killed, she won’t lose one dollar, or a night’s sleep.
Have her fired, and the entire program shut down before some innocent person is killed and eaten.
Excellent post, GG.
"...18 cougars were captured and are now being tracked."
Thank goodness. My nephews will be a bit safer.
LOL
He didn’t say who has a death wish and is willing to do the spanking.
