Is it really the huge number of animals taken under Constitutional Rights that bothers you?

In Banff National Park, where of course no elk are killed by hunters, more elk are killed by trains (CP rail) than are killed by wolves.

Alberta Bigbore calls it as he sees it. No need to be surprised, embarrassed, or disappointed.

I'm surprised there wasn't this big of an uproar of the Bonnie and Clyde hunters who wasted all the meat from the animals they slaughtered. If this hunt was done by 12 or more individuals then that means the meat will be shared between their families.

Wonder if Ron Flett will have a talk with is boy about the way Facebook has played into this. Public would not have even been aware of this incident.
His statements are very doubtful and were not even necessary.
Natives practicing their rights was all he needed to say to F&W officers.
But to say 12 shooters, none wounded, none pregnant, Geesh.

There are probably more Elk killed by Sasquatch then by Wolves, since there are hardly any Wolves left.
Yet I do feel it is unfortunate that so much wildlife is killed by trains, not to mention the other impacts trains have on the environment.

I feel bad for him because he has been shamed by the actions of others.

No, it was his actions in this hunt and his statements to the paper that shamed himself but I am glad you realize it was a shamefull act.

I try not to be racist.
I try to be fair, understanding and realistic.
This never ending open season for first nations is unsustainable.
Traditional rights can be respected with traditional weapons.
At some point the line has been crossed......
"White man's tools, white mans rules!!!"
....that is fair and reasonable.
