Madison wolves targeted for death

 

 

 

(Note: Nothing in the story's title indicates how many elk, deer, cattle, sheep, herding and pet dogs were "targeted for death" by the misapplication of the EXPIRED since October 1, 1992, "Endangered Species" Act. Not a word. By killing two wolves here and two wolves there, the wolf packs stand an excellent chance of continuing to multiply. The hunt's been on to eliminate all ranching, farming and recreation in America by the concentrated, premeditated, with malice aforethought loosing of large predators, including, but not limited to, wolves, upon rural America for the past dozen years. Concentrated because the numbers of hand-raised and picked for size/aggressiveness large predators are deliberately far too high to be fed upon a diet of wildlife alone. Premeditated and with malice aforethought because the "strategic plan" is to remove private property owners and responsible resource providers from their own land -- and stealing both their property rights and their freedom to legitimately utilize that land and freedom. When "wolf densities" are so high that no one can live in vast swaths of America any longer, The Wildlands Project will have borne its poison fruit: the ownership of America will again be in the hands of a powerful few and property rights as structured in our Republic will be as ashes. Shall folks simply let this happen? No, and Marbury v. Madison clearly states: "All laws ... repugnant to the Constitution are null and void." That means that such unconstitutional "laws" as the ESA appear to not only be repugnant, but also apparently null and void. Like the Language Deception that is "endangered," "threatened," "candidate," and other prefixes joined with the word "species," "invasive non-native," "exotic," and "native" species are deliberately portrayed as legitimate. Scarce could language be further from the truth. Like illegal "immigrants," which is an oxymoron -- because if you're illegal, you're not an immigrant, but an invader or alien -- power players stand to gain by keeping the sham going. Canadian gray wolves don't ask to be bred in captivity and sicced, en masse, upon rural folks. Neither do people all over the world want to work for such abysmal "pay" that they can never own anything in the way of property. Such false premises fosters nothing but socialism and the confiscation of property rights and freedom by Language Deception. Those masters of this game of words play with human lives and freedom as a cat toys with a mouse. There is no soul involved when making the world a vast Coliseum, complete with lions and gladiators -- or denizens of high-density "smart growth" city slums.)

Ennis, Montana - The hunt is on for two wolves that have attacked and maimed three heifers so badly near Ennis that they had to be euthanized.

Officials with Montana Fish, Wildlife and Parks (FWP) have issued two shoot-on-sight permits to a Madison Valley rancher whose cattle were attacked by the wolves. Officials did not name the rancher.

Trappers with the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Wildlife Services are also looking for the wolves. The predators are suspected of being members of the Wedge pack, but officials haven't confirmed that, said Carolyn Sime, FWP wolf program coordinator.

That pack got into trouble earlier this year for attacking cattle on the same ranch. Two wolves from the pack were killed to deal with the problem.

Sime said the fact that the cattle in this latest incident were yearling heifers means the attacks are serious and warrant lethal control.

“They're pretty good-sized cattle, as opposed to calves,” she said.

Federal trappers and ranch hands will keep hunting for the wolves until two are killed. Sime said FWP uses an incremental approach to dealing with wolves that are causing problems.

That means while more wolves may have been involved in the attack, officials haven't confirmed that and don't want to over-react, which could result in killing more wolves than necessary that may not have been involved with the attacks.

“More often than not you don't know how many were involved in the predation event, versus feeding on the carcass,” she said. “The level of response is commensurate with the level of damage.” The Wedge pack is known to roam around the property where the cattle were attacked.

But Sime said in the fall wolves wander more and often branch out in smaller groups, or on their own, so the wolves could be from another pack.

The permits issued are valid until October 15, when the cattle on the property are removed for the winter.
