Applications, antlers, and winterkill — BIG HUNT GUYS Podcast Ep. 65

This winter produced a 100 year storm, a freak in the weather all focused on the Moffat County, a high plains desert in the big game capitol located in north west Colorado. The was a bad on in 1982 but the deer loss was more because of snow, then warm days that melted the top of the snow, followed by could weather that iced the surface and scraped the skin of the legs of the deer and antelope. We can’t change the weather or nature, but we can lessen the effects of the disastrous effects it has on Colorado wildlife. The top management heavy division of wildlife and with the director leading the charge decided that since they could not save them all they would not even try. There only job is to manage wildlife as in their charter. Again they display the very poor job they do in that area. With elk licenses at $750 for elk and having the most elk of any state this should be a felony for them to sit in their warm office in Denver, which did not receive a record snow fall. drink their coffee and announce the bad winter as it was happening. But not do a thing about the herds of deer, elk and antelope dying in the roadways and miles in-between because of their Extreme negligence. They must only be managing the dog walks and parks in Denver, not our wild game resources. We are forced to pay these overpaid educated dummies, to do nothing to manage the game nomb4ers. Allowing thousands and thousands of game animals to die as the saw it coming and just posted it but did not get off their fat butts to do anything to lessen the anticipated damage makes me sick. If there were enough Wal-Marts we could easily fill the with incoming door greeter because that is the level of intelligence they display, year after year. Line their pockets with wildlife money, then December 31 roll it up to the Governors bucket so that he can use it for biking trails around Denver, and fields for socker moms. A total mis-use of fund by the Parks and Wildlife Gestapo. I know some won't make the cut at Wal-Mart, but that does show there level of intelligence we have managing our most important resource in the state. It all comes down to the bean counter dollar. You see the more they save the more that rolls up to the governors bucker every year on December, and the Parks and wild life starts at broke every year. Why? Because the Parks and Wildlife director gets a star on his pointed little head for having more money to roll up to his boss, the governor every year. When it comes to any emergency feeding which they are definitely able to do, they don't because it would lower the governors income. Basically to hell with the wildlife, the governor is my boss. Government work has never been as good as the private sector, because they don’t care about customer satisfaction, they are guaranteed their paycheck and you can’t be fired. They are quite happy to be over budget, that way they can justify asking for more money per division next year. In the private sector the account judgment uses a thing call common sense, a skill that the Colorado P&W does not use, in decision because if they don’t have enough money th4e just rain haunting license or ad a bogus small game license requirement to get a license. Just like the wolf issue we all know they needed a plan because the Parks and wildlife division wanted the wolves because the Fish and wildlife have a wolf fund that the pay to every state each year for the number of wolves they harbor in the state. The were introduced behind the sportsman’s back and keep confidential like the details of WWII. The did this because the bean counters wanted them to get that fed money in the back door, which is also confidential. Then they knew that if everything came out, they would lose any type of sportsman permission to introduce wolver. Ta-Da they dreamed up a pan to have a vote counting election voting to who want wolve and who does not. It was a frig-en land slide that over 75 of the people did not want wolves. As the vote we counted in Denver behind closed doors it was as bias as a communist vote for communism under a director. Yes, they showed the skill and knowledge of counting. The announced that the people that wanted wolves won. There were no "Independent Auditors" or overseers of that type. I guess I should throw in their lack of honesty as well, which has always been an issue when you have government entity that is crooked as a dogs hind leg. Do the Care in any way about the hunters paying for everything including putting their kids through school, keeping a roof over their head, food on their table. No, not in any way. This is a good example for an Iacocca cleanout of usness and needles management, because if they were managing, the big Game bole of the NW corner of the state would have been seen developing, and action would have been taken. Possible none of them would have made the cut for Walmart greeter, I hope there are enough dust mops around so that can have a job that make the money our hunters make and see the real world as it is. Bone decisions where they felt to study mountain lions the made it illegal to hunt mountain lions on the flattops, because it was a Mountain lion test area. Their lack of intelligence showed that in the winter the Loins with not stay up the in the deep snow, the will follow their food supply down into the valley where people and dogs have the migration deer and elk every winter. A standard predator protocol everywhere. Now calves disappeared and even horses got rakes by wintering lions as the population increased. Or the Aspen Bear problem, where bears had been coning into town and living of the trash cans in the town. No one followed them with little bags to pick up their crap, as they mixed with the towns dogs, cats and kids. Finally the made a deal with the CP&W that if the CP&W would capture then and release then into the wilderness, they (Aspen) would allow then to trap the bears, it turned out to be about 60 bears, remember these were not wildlife survival bears, they were bears that had grown up on Garbage in town out of can and dumpsters. They weren’t taken to the wilderness. Can drive a truck with a bear trap behind it into a designated wilderness area legally. They were release around meeker. Farmers report4ed bears chasing their calves during the middle of the day. The bears had been protected in aspen from hunting for so many years, they weren’t afraid of man and now did not have the skills to survive on their own in the wild. To hid this boner that they has produced, CP&W contracted 4 Bear Trappers to kill 30 bears. Now hunters would have paid for licenses to hunt them, yet the hunters license money in the CP@W bank was used to pay the 4 to reduce the number od beards to 30. The CP&W then got the hunter complaints for the actions and that is when they put bear licenses out in almost every GMU in the stare to hide their boner of a decision again. If you herd of the Buster Fire a few years ago during hot dry summer west of Maybell. The approximately 1 mile square area was fenced off for prairie dogs and black footed ferrets that can live on prairie dogs. In a short time the ferrets were running out of prairie dogs to eat. They CP&W went over to the eastern slope where the was an abundance of prairie dogs and trapped them to relocate over on buster flats. When they found that they has brought plague flea carrying prairie dogs, the tried to catch and bait the prairie dogs. The prairie dogs were much smarter than the CP&W after seeing 1 or 2 in live traps, they would not go in. So they put out poison bait, This was only helping for a short time and then the prairie dogs would not eat it. After some poor thought process that they carry, the idea was to burn the ground they the prairie dogs would need to eat the bait because all of the groups was gone, biologists not knowing that prairie dogs have more interest in roots then grass by itself, because roots are their water source. Again the wanted to keep quiet that that they has brought bubonic Plague from the eastern Slope to the western slope, so they decided to burn the 1 mile fence enclosure where the ferrets and the prairie dogs were located. Trying to keep everything low key from the public, ranchers the started the fire with verry little fire control personnel and equipment. Yes, that boner of a fire got away for their, and burned 60,000 acres, this produced the fire fighter that stay in the park in Maybell all summer, along with many other fire department and range fore group to stop and put out the fire. The CP&W had done another Bonner, in fact this many boners in a row would register high in the books Guinness book of records. When the media got wind of the CP&W reported it as a lighting fire, although the locals in the area knew the truth, the had been no thunder storms in the area for at least a week. I could go on and on about boners after boners, provide by this inadequate educated dummies designated to manage our wild life. You can see their isn’t any thing that they can manage except some can manage their own dog or cat, but again only some. In Oregon there is a Watchdog group of 2000, The Hunters Association, to oversee the actions that are wildlife oriented. A lobbyist is in the Oregon state Capitol of Portland and gets involved so that the Oregon hunters don't get the Oregon Department of Fish & Wildlife goals don’t get shoved down the hunters throat, as the ODFW drive for their goals, and California goals, which are not the goals of the Oregon Hunters Association. In doing so they have found numerous time that the ODFW has showed fraudulent actions behind closed door, as their bill to the Hunters association for the ODFW invoice the Hunters association for 2 Million when the Hunters Association completely rejected the ODFW offer to work with the on a new property that they bought and we doing work to improve the property habitat. We think Government scams only happen in Washington DC. The truth is “it is amongst us weather we like it or not.” Remember: The biggest lie is, “I am here from the government, I am here to help!” I do like to bring out the facts and the lies they produce to the public while they sit behind their big desks and drink coffee every day. It is completely extremely poor management and an extremely fat and over built upper management living out and doing nothing just waiting for their retirement clock to ring, while out wildlife dies because of the practiced ignorance. If you don’t see me one day it will be because the Colorado Parks and Wildlife Gestapo can see me to hush me up from spreading the truth, that they don’t want heard. I will probably hear from some upper level Gestapo again like I had before when I caught 6th CP&W in their f5radulent license drawing a few years ago when they cheated 500 hunters out of the license, they had drawn do to a CP&W mistake. I am accustomed to his lies, which he finally admitted they were but that was what he was told to say to everyone.
