I mean what are the odds of not seeing a deer when there are so many and only seeing wolves where there aren't so many?
The facts are: The Clam Lake elk project is in jeopardy because the wolves are vitually eating every calf that hits the ground! The wolf has killed the deer population down to where the wolf is feeding on peoples pets. Read "Wisconsin Outdoor News". Now they are eating livestock because the deer herd has been decimated in some areas.
Now who say's there are (so many) deer?
Are you a deer counter for the DNR? Thats the problem, some people can't count! I hear they count the concrete deer in peoples yards.
In order to know what the true numbers are, the DnR needs land owners and hunters input.
A person first needs to know what the true deer and wolf #'s are before you say "there are so many".
Now you say ( " about a million deer and 1000 wolves" )is this fact or are we just throwing numbers that sound good on paper? Have you checked out every area in the state, where hunters are saying the herd is down because of the (wolf)? Blame the other hunters because they are'nt as good as You, with their hunting skills.
You might want to read up on the Wolf and their ways of predation.
First they kill the wild game, then livestock, and finally peoples pets.
Its Great to know there are such stealthy hunters, as yourself, in our midst.
