To the OP.
I don't spend much time in the areas that you describe, but I agree with what you are saying.
If poison is the answer. It does not make sense from a money perspective to gun down ungulates to poison them when there is already road kill. It is cheaper to long line a animal and drop it then it is to find a animal, shoot it, find a place to land, set poison, take off and repeat. They could collect lots of road kill and set poison and long line a lot more animals in one day than the way they are doing it right now.
Your letter touches on spraying to kill every plant that isn't pine. I was spring bear hunting and watched a helicopter spray one of my favorite cutblocks in Wmu 339 this year. Needless to say come fall there wasn't a track to be found in that cutblock. The practice should be banned.
