There comes a time when endangered species protections need to come in 2nd when farmers are continually losing baby calves and other livestock.

Joe Baker

To allow people to protect livestock and pets. Also working with wolves in Idaho, the conservationists that was speaking on the news didn’t tell the whole truth. Do the research, in Idaho since 2000 we have had problems with them going on killing sprees and not eating what they kill. It’s not rare.

Steven Huillet

Wolves are killing machines. Destroying deer and elk populations, and now destroying ranchers livestock. They should have never been brought back to Oregon.

Look at Yellowstone. Once reintroduced the habitat recovered from over grazing. God has a plan.

Jean Bartholomew

Wolf 158 was an outlier. ATYPICAL behavior, which you noted very briefly. Usually easy known deterrence or relocation methods work!! There is no need for a killing spree of these beautiful wild animals.

Allison Boyce

Farmers need to take other action, using horse patrol, 4 x 4 patrol, more employees. You can’t just kill everything that gets in your way.

They’ve been re-introduced after having been absent from the ecosystem for a very long time.

Do you recycle?

I try whenever I can.

Barry Rashford

If we want a plastic ocean then we should continue to do what we are doing.

Because it is the right thing to do.

hello

Larry Ewart

As much as possible

Sarah Croom

I do but I go rounds w/ my guy. Ever since China stopped taking our recycling he stopped doing it. Idk if all that is real, I have noticed that our garbage guy just loads both cans into the same dump bin & it’s not sorted. So that’s really disturbing. Every little bit helps I feel. I rec. everything

My mom has a cow if we don't

I do what I can but live in an area where they don't have it. Still I save bottles and cardboard to take to recycling. I cook from scratch so don't really have cans.

Michael Stafford

It is the least we can do to preserve our resources.

Julie Brantley

We pay by the pound for certain items so why not pay less and recycle - it's the right thing to do for me and the environment.

JoãoVitorJ J

Yes, I recycle

Milena Santana

because it helps the environment

Cornelia H. Dunnings

I like to help the environment. I even pick up cans & bottles near my car in parking lots.

Joyce Koch

I feel I'm helping out.

Linda Jeffcoat Amick

Why not?

gena

Although I can only hope that it's useful because there is no proof that what is supposedly sent to the recyclers they actually carry through. You always hear about it not being done.

Evey G Quines

It's the least I can do

Bonita Davis

We take our own garbage to the dump and pay by the pound. Recycling is free so the more we recycle the less we have to pay.

Jill Hoadley Chalk

It's important to reuse as many things as possible.

Ann Wilbanks

Our duty to recycle. If it goes to the landfill, it piles up. Be responsible!!

Rachel Clara Smith

Of course! Everyone should recycle!

BJ Arey

We recycle everything possible. We also take cloth bags shopping, use insulated bag with blue ice for cold items & take reusable containers to restaurants for leftovers to take home.
