the fensing laws state that you hav eto have a three wire fence to keep out livestock I don't think that is going to keep much wildlife out

so the fact that DOW failed to manage the population of wildlife (which is there job) to a point that they can't figure out how to controle it means that they have to go into law enforcement mode instead. You tell me how any of this proves that someone is at fault. Besides the past isn't on trial at this time there isn't anything but stories so you can't convict him on that either. IN the end two wrongs don't make it right and I hope the DOW can fix the problems that it has created before mother nature comes in and fixes the overpopulation and were left with nothing.

sounds to me like the DOW went above the law and started collecting evidence before they produced the warrent

we talk about protecting our property with the use of panels to keep the animals out of the hay. but how are you going to feed the cows if you keep the hay in the stack yard? one of the biggest problems with the wildlife isn't in the yard it's on the feed lot were the livestock are confronted and drove off the feed buy the wildlife. numerous animals in this valley have been damaged buy wildlife. I just wonder what the DOW is going to do for winter range since alot of it is now black are they going to do more for the wildlife to help them survive this winter or just let the ranchers take care of it for them or better yet just let mother nature finely get fed up and handle it for them. I just hope the DOW gets the picture that managment is cheaper then law inforcement.

Its sad to see the paper is tring to convict Mr. Culverwell before the trial has begun. Theres nothing like tring to ruin the bias of the community.

The DOW likes to make promises and not follow through with them the problems I have been spread over two years and nothing has been done at this point even though they keep saying they will. At this point the numbers show that the DOW couldn't manage a pen of rabbits not to mention a group of wildlife. The elk numbers have been 2x the goal that the DOW says the land could handle for over three years. If I were to run my cattle operation this way I would have been brought up on charges of cruelty to animals a long time ago. When the land can't support the use I have to sell and then rebuild as the land can with stand it. At this point the land can't handle the same numbers as it did in the 70's and 80's but the Dow lets the numbers increase well beyond what they were then and then can't understand why the animals are moving and trying to survive by storming the places that have the feed. The antelope have moved east due to the fact that the excess numbers of elk are wintering were they used to live. At this point if the Dow doesn't step in and learn to manage then Mother Nature will just as she is doing with the so well managed prairie dogs of Boulder that now have the “plague”. For those of you who think that the answer is get help from DOW then maybe you should try jumping through those hoops and not be one of the elite ranchers that are bringing in the thousand dollars hunters to help pad the DOW coffer.
