heres my 1st hand experience.................1st wolves are cool. 2nd seeing them is cool 3rd every hunt unit i have hunted/fished in with wolves since im a native now HAS LESS GAME! hmmmmm wonder why?
4th unit 27 that includes alpine az. IS DEVOID OF ANY DEER or ANTELOPEZZZZZ, and this so happens to be smack dab in the fed wolf recovery area. and yes after spending (10) thats TEN DAYS in there, we did not so much as SEE (1) deer or antelopezzz poo bean nor track. hmmmmmmmmmmmm WTF?
yes we saw elk and yes we saw wolves and we heard wolves.
now btwn humping our azz off(feets dont fail me now), riding quads all over the unit(know it like the back of my hand since i have been going there since i was a kid), driving across the entire unit, a pair of doktor 15x80's, a pair of steiner 10x50's a bushnell spotting scope..................you would THINK we might find at least a freeking DOE!
now if you were a wolf would you square off on a cow elk bull elk...........or a measly azzd deer or antelopezzz?????? pretty obvious what the answer is.
now lets move over cross da border to new messiko..............from reserve new messiko south along the blue river and east into the black range and the gila.
guess what? the bare minimum of deer to be found spring summer fall winter. hmmmmmm wonder why? martian aliens???
and ya know what?????????? if ya think yer a real bad azz, i flat double dawg DARE YOU TO WEAR a I HEART WOLVES t-shirt into any bar/cafe from alpine ,az. over to reserve, new messiko on down south to silver city,new messiko, and see what the ranchers (their only income cattle/sheep) have to say about your opinion.
please forward pics and have your will made out.
i dont have a problem with them as i will never hunt a unit for deer or antelopezzz again that has wolves in it. why waste 5 hrs getting there,fuel beer,food etc. to hear wolves howl and see elk that ya cant shoot when ya got a freeking deer or antelopezz tag?
now look up the bull crap ya gotta go thru while buck nekid jumping thru fiery azzd hoops to get yer money back from the feds when some of yer cattle or sheep are killed by wolves and you will understand why so many(all) ranchers HATE THEM!
and then theres the clowns that want to re-introduce GRIZZLY BEARS back into the same area......UNIT 27 and along the blue river, where the last grizz was killed in 1920. yes grizzi bears where native to airy-zoney.
so there ya have both sides in a nutshell.
