Wolf advocates: Hunters may have killed 5 wolves in well-known Yellowstone pack

Wildlife officials have indicated that it is impossible to determine if five wolves recently killed are members of a certain pack.  Meanwhile, and totally predictable, Wolves of the Rockies President Marc Cooke says he believes the five wolves killed were from Yellowstone.

Of course, no supporting documentation is provided to help us understand Mr. Cooke’s perspective, other than the fact that he adores wolves.

Anyway, wolf seasons are aimed at controlling the burgeoning wolf populations throughout their range.

No animal-rights organization will ever go along with any type of managed hunt; they’re anti hunters!  They never agree on population numbers or goals being met.  If it’s hunting, they don’t agree.  And, that may explain Mr. Cooke’s feelings.

U.S. Senate and House Send Letters Saying “NO” to U.N. Arms Trade Treaty

Posted on October 18, 2013…American gun owners must remain vigilant in ensuring this treaty is never ratified.

In October of 2009, at the U.N. General Assembly, the Obama administration reversed the positions of the two previous administrations and voted for the United States to participate in negotiating the United Nations Arms Trade Treaty. On September 25, 2013, Obama’s designs on international gun control were realized, as Secretary of State John Kerry signed the ATT on behalf of the Obama administration. The NRA strongly opposes this treaty, which clearly jeopardizes the right to keep and bear arms protected by the Second Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. Read more
