I'm a hunter and I've seen a drastic reduction of game animals in many hunting units.

The value of the human life must not be compared to an animal. This is obvious, and the refusal to take action on the account of life taken or risked is simply dilliberate denial to this ramafication.

It's the only way to actually be able to find and kill a cougar when hunting them

While we may be encroaching on their lives, we have to save ourselves and our pets from their search for food.

Because our woods are infested with them. Wildlife officials ( ODFW ) dont like to talk about it like a dirty little secret.

Yes hounds should be used again because we are talking about human lives versus animal lives. Human lives should be considered first.

making heavy reduction of game animals. The state uses dogs to hunt and control over population and nuisance cats. They hire professional hunter where hunters could get population down with use of dog

To have healthy elk and deer numbers predation needs to be controlledTags issued to hound hunters were very effective in the control of these large preadators

They are frequenting neighborhoods, and killing livestock again, there are too many. Something has to be done. First adult, next a child!?

I agree with Leslie (again). it's inhumane, except for trackig a suspected killer cat.

I'm not even sure the one that is suspected of killing the woman really did it. They have found no trace or scent to say one was there. Maybe murder by pitbull ?

Humans are the very reason this happens. We are encroaching on their territory.

It's wrong. Inhumane. BUT... in case you need to track a specific cat as it attacked someone, I would say it's ok.
