Numbers of various species of wildlife needs to be tweaked occasionally. I got an email from an enviro friend wanting me to sign a petition to ban seal clubbing by fishermen. The seals feed on the fish they are trying to catch to make a living.

Same day I got an email from a hunter friend showing a picture of about 20 foxes that had been killed because they were devastating the turkey population. That prompted a rancher friend to say that the turkey population had exploded in his area and the turkeys were devastating the quail.

Roseann Rosannadanna was right “it's always something”.

It seems it is always something.

From what I’ve read about wolves in Alaska the activists don’t want any killed, they contend nature will balance itself. The problem as I see it is that man is competing with wolves for moose and caribou, many Alaskans depend on them for meat and wolves are decimating them in some areas, thus wildlife management.
