Cry Wolf

[Mr. 16 gauge]

As for the P.C. thing: I grew up playing cowboys and indians, not cowboys and native americans......and I'm too darn old to change!

As for the wolves: Michigan has proposed some stupid laws to protect wolves; one of which is to ban the shooting of coyotes during firearms deer season in the U.P. because occasionally a wolf would be killed after being mistaken for a coyote. There is no solution put in place for wolves that kill domestic livestock or pets (one family listened in horror as their pet dog was killed and eaten under their house), other than to replace said animal (and I'm sure that the govt. does a lot of foot dragging when it comes to ponying up on that one).....I wonder what the response is going to be from the animal rights individuals when a child or adult is killed. There have been instances where hunters have been stalked and their dogs killed. The ALFs (animal rights fanatics) claim that wolves only kill the sick and the weak, but we who spend time in the outdoors know the truth. Of course, they also claim that coyotes won't attack humans, but we've seen that not only will they attack humans, they will kill them as well.
To make matters worse, the idiots in our DNR have decided that since there are now wolves in the LP of Michigan, that we should close the taking of coyotes during the firearms deer season in the lower penninsula as well.....not during bow or muzzleloader season (apparently, if you hunt with a rifle you can't identify game), but only firearms deer season.....what a crock!
