The arrogant stupidity of “wildlife researchers” and state fish and game departments never ceases to amaze me. My wife and I deal with them every year. Maybe 25% of them get it and the rest are authoritarian morons.
They keep making the same mistakes repeatedly and NEVER learn from them. BUT, they are so much SMARTER than the general public that we had better not interfere or you can bet they’ll make trouble for us AND kill the affected wildlife as well.
Kinda like cops killing dogs... The government no longer serves the greater good.
LOL. Thanks, I needed that.
“We had to destroy the town to save it.”
I agree with your sentiments—leave the calves alone. They are suddenly foreign to their mothers. Surely we can find a better way to study animals than with this sort of intrusion.
Obviously not a moose themselves. Real late-term moose abortionist?
If Moose where supposed to be fitted with GPS trackers they would come from the factory already fitted.
Nature always operates correctly when Humans KTFO of things they don’t understand.
It wasn’t the KT event that killed all the Dinosaurs.....it was wildlife researchers with GPS tracking collars.
DNR and Fed Researchers are nothing more than educated idiots. Do we need to spend millions on research all over this country to find that wolves are killing our elk, moose, deer and cattle? Ask any hunter and he can easily give you an answer in seconds and for “free”. Yes, other predators such as bears and Mountain Lions do kill their share but nothing like what wolves do. Such losses did not occur prior to introducing wolves to the equation.
What is REALLY needed is a bounty on wolves, PERIOD. Ask any rancher, farmer or hunter.
Some 18,000 elk of Montana’s Northern Yellowstone herd have been slaughtered since the introduction of the Canadian grey wolf to the area 20 years ago...leaving two or three thousand yet to be finished off.
Moose? There are almost none left. Ditto bighorn sheep and mountain goats.
These past couple decades have seen the Leftist radicalization of wildlife management, with the predictable results of widespread destruction.
