And yep many see trappers as not pulling their weight on this front. Maybe if you trappers are then shed some facts on what is being harvested for wolves and from what areas. Im sure extra knowledge would be a huge asset.
And the poll should show you trappers the public's opinion on the job they are doing in the way of wolves!!

Trappers aren't pulling their weight? I would expect that the guys with the most to lose from wolf predation against sheep, SHEEP HUNTING OUTFITTERS AND GUIDES, would be the ones out there doing something. Why would you expect others to ensure that your business remains viable. If you don't want to get out there with a rifle and get after the wolves perhaps as a group you could contract some trappers to address your problem.
And Sheepguide, honestly, not trying to be snarky. Just seems like you guys should be the ones taking action if it's impacting your livelihood. Perhaps you are and I just don't know it.
