Exactly.LOL. Mike, I think you quoted the wrong Zeke post. My response was simply giving him a "thumbs up".
He's probably got the other guy on IGNORE by now.

That is a big a$$ flat, open and exposed place for a wolf to be.
OTOH, my wife and I found a cow walking in the woods near Wapinitia!
I just checked and ODFW has the 2022 regulations online. Looks like there are still several eastern units open to general tag holders. Not much in the way of units I've ever chased elk in, but I'm not averse to looking over some new country. If I don't draw my preferred unit, I'll probably buy the general tag and start from scratch.Is there any more general bow elk hunt areas in E. OR?
They changed the last general 'rifle' hunt to draw just a couple years ago. That was the High Cascade Elk Hunt and I live within one of the units. A friend killed a three pointer not far from me a few years back.

You remember which units? I may have to look myself.Looks like there are still several eastern units open to general tag
I'll try to cut and paste:You remember which units? I may have to look myself.
I used to bow hunt long ago but got out of it.
I hunted both of those units and liked them both. Starkey started getting pretty crowded and Ochocos turned into a draw unit, so we moved further east and hunted Snake River, Imnaha, Keating, etc.Still some good area. Probably still general as not many typically go that far East to bow hunt.
I used to hunt Starkey however but really liked the units in the Ochocos which were my go-to places.
"Yeah, well I've lived in lots of high rise apartment buildings in the downtown areas of several major cities, so there!"Never mind my and my extended family's experience with raising cattle, predator control, and hunting deer and elk in eastern Oregon since 1870. Never mind that I have been a logger, a farmer/rancher, a professional guide, and an outdoor sports business owner, or that I am college educated (where I wrote research papers) and attended law school.
well isn't that special.
After reading the article, my money is not on wolves. It's on two-legged dogs. And that's an insult to dogs everywhere, so I apologize.Now the wolves are being blamed for eating a WA kid:
Siblings of missing Washington girl Oakley Carlson, 5, said sister was 'no more,' 'had been eaten by wolves'
The young siblings of missing Washington 5-year-old Oakley Carlson told investigators and a friend that their vanished sister – who was reportedly last seen over 10 months ago – is "no more," and had "gone out into the woods and had been eaten by wolves."www.foxnews.com
If I had to bet it was one or both of the zombies pictured.After reading the article, my money is not on wolves. It's on two-legged dogs. And that's an insult to dogs everywhere, so I apologize.
ETA: UGH!
in this clip they claim wolves are only sucessful 10% of the time when they hunt prey, is it true that wolves are only successful only 10% of the time they hunt prey?
Exactly. I really, really do not want to see that hybrid Coywolf making its way into the Pacific Northwest!Coywolf hybrids are naturally occurring in the North and Northeast... maybe our smart azzhats import some of those.
No wonder all my childhood storybooks showed the big bad wolf drooling...
Spot on, Joshp3. As we've seen so starkly the past two years, "objective" science is being progressively corrupted by politics. Just look at the now infamous Lancet publication, signed by 27 scientists, claiming it was virtually impossible for Covid to have come from the Wuhan lab. The Lancet, mind you, is supposed to be one of the world's leading peer-reviewed medical journals. Did that level of politically corrupted science happen in the case of the Yellowstone report vis-à-vis wolves? No idea, and it would be wrong to claim so without proof. But would I be surprised? Hell no...Have you ever considered what that actually means? Peer reviewed, that is. Given the absurd level of insular behavior the academics have shown us over the last decade...do you really think a study being accepted by all of the same-minded people really has any credibility? Especially with the people that live/recreat in said "peer reviewed" environment studied?
What peer reviewed means is "We voted on reality and this is our version."Spot on, Joshp3.

The ten percent figure is frequently assigned to numerous predators. It is rather subjective, in what constitutes "every time they hunt prey". Since they are nearly always hunting, what is the criteria for an episode to measure?in this clip they claim wolves are only sucessful 10% of the time when they hunt prey, is it true that wolves are only successful only 10% of the time they hunt prey?
(question open to everyone here)
