Many times. Had no insurance. St. Charles is one of the most expensive hospitals in the nations

There are specialists that do not exist in CO and other specialists that have much higher volumes than CO therefore likely to produce a better outcome. Primary care is different matter.

VA always wants to send you to Portland for further treatment or testing.

Couldn't find progressive Cancer Care here in Central Oregon. Traveled to Portland for more appropriate and qualified providers, saving my life and not undergoing a horrific disfiguring outcome here

We have limited access to pediatric specialists in Central Oregon. One of my children lives with multiple AI disorders that have required care unavailable locally.

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.

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

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.

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.

Just the same usual amount. It's not much of a problem at Discovery Park, tho. Owners seem to have good control of their dogs.

Leash kids. They're worse than dogs.
