No I didn't hear about this. We as hunters need to take a page out of their playbook and start suing the feds to get what we want as hunters. Our morals are stopping us from stooping that low, but we have to play the same game as the anti's are or we will slowly get our hunting opportunities taken from us.
Any idea what property it is in Indiana, and what can be hunted there?

I had not heard about this. Here is what I could find about indiana.
• Indiana
o Patoka River National Wildlife Refuge: Open crow, pheasant and skunk hunting on new
acres and acres already open to other hunting, and expand existing migratory bird, upland
game, big game, and sport fishing to new acres.
o Muscatatuck National Wildlife Refuge: Open migratory bird hunting for the first time and
raccoon, fox, coyote, opossum, skunk hunting on acres already open to other hunting, and expand season dates for wild turkey hunting to further align with state regulations.

Hmmmmm not good. I occasionally hunt Patoka, it would be a tall order to shut hunting down on all that. Either way the antis need to be stopped.

They got the Wisconsin Wolf season stopped, and got the wolves put back under federal protection.

They got the Wisconsin Wolf season stopped, and got the wolves put back under federal protection. I saw that. The SSS season is still open though. A relative told me of a dairy farmer in Wi that had problems with wolves killing some of his calves, and he saw them get brazen enough to go all the way to the barn to grab one. He called in the DNR and they said no it's just coyotes. He told the DNR guy O.K. then, since coyotes are doing it and it's legal to shoot them, I'll give you a call when I shoot one. The DNR guy didn't like that answer and he was really not liking it when the dairy farmer called him later telling him to come out and pick up the dead "coyote". "You can't do that." "What? I can't shoot coyotes that are attacking my herd?" "You can't shoot a wolf." "According to you, it's not a wolf, it's a coyote, and unless you do something about them, I will continue to protect my herd from the coyotes that you said were causing the problem." Just like the Mt. Lion problem out West. There is false reporting going on by the DNR out there too. I was out there on an elk hunt some years ago. Another hunter had a lion tag. The landowners were "fighting" with the local DNR guy about the number of lions in the area. The DNR guy told his supervisor that all the lions in the area were tagged and that the landowners didn't know what they were talking about. That particular DNR guy just happened to be dating a gal that was instrumental in getting the lions in Ca on the protected list..... Long story short, a lion was seen attacking an elk, the guides brought in the lion dogs. Said lion was killed after a long chase, said lion was brought to the supervisor (it wasn't tagged or collared) and that DNR guy got in hot water with his boss for it. |
