Bitterness is a downward spiral.

Didn't I write dispatch, you may have profestrogenitis? I have absolutely no doubt that ageda grant seeking biologists can restrict hunters in a way that would give you folks a tingle up your leg, am I right?

Manage anyway they feel like, my example questions why they are spending money in a foreign country. Who needs a faux hog firewall up in Canada, when Montana has a pretty good grasp of how to manage pest hogs. You know your buddy the prof lied to you? Of course, if there are less coyotes in an area, because they are shot, every new pup is a higher percentage of the population, prof's rate increase, right Steve?

No, the Montanans that would dispatch pests are the ranchers and farmers, right Steve, not the Coloradans that venture north to plant shooting stock?
