Dwight Rodtka
Many of you might recognize the name.
For those who don't know, he is the poster child for the anti trapping/anti snaring movement in Alberta. I know nothing about him other then that he was strongly against snaring so I decided to try to find out more about him. He describes himself as a retired Alberta Government Problem Wildlife Specialist. So what is a Problem Wildlife Specialist I wondered. Turns out I was one, only we called ourselves county trappers. Same job same requirements, different name. So how much of a specialist is a county trapper/Problem Wildlife Specialist? The Alberta government job description says to qualify for the position one must; Quote:
So in his case calling himself a specialist is a stretch at best. I thought some of you might like to know that should you ever encounter him. |
Usually about once a year he surfaces on here or somewhere and tells everyone how mean and bad snaring is.

He's nothing but a wind bag wanna be. It was his claims about snaring that caught my attention. I will guarantee that all he knows about snaring came from reading, not seeing or doing. His comments about snaring rank up there with the teacher in Edmonton that complained about all the animals that rib their tongues off after getting them stuck on frozen traps. |
The sad fact is that there are people out there who are picking up what he and his ilk are laying down.
