If this doesn't piss you off.......lets talk

In a recent press release, the DFW director hailed one of the top accomplishments of the agency: Wildlife nanny. He didn't use that term, but he was proud of the time his biologists and wardens wasted on problem wildlife calls. Mountain lions, bears, and other potentially dangerous critters would enter urban California and need 100s of man-hours of time to be tranquilized, caged, and relocated. For many animals, they would end up in the same situation a week or two later. That is an accomplishment? Wildlife nannies: That's what the DFW has become, a feel-good agency all fuzzy and warm and politically correct.
 
Thanks for posting Mark........It's unbelievable how DFG has changed over the years.......I had this exact conversation today with some fellow hunters & fisherman.......John Massie (former senior biologist) told me many years ago this was coming.......Thanks to him, we have turkeys in San Diego.......It could never happen today!........... :mad:
