[RC] Hunters/Mt. Lions - hope lundquist
Ridecampers: I live in Siskiyou County in northern California. Mt. Lion
reins here. The Hunters that can afford to go to another state will do so to
do their hunting because the Deer and Elk population has dwindled because of
the over population of Mt.Lions. One Hunter this year (Oct) was shot dead by
another Hunter. He was carrying over his shoulder a deer he had shot.I don't
think experienced Hunters would do this but every year there are first time
Hunters. Lesson to Hunters be sure you drape your kill in orange. A couple
of weeks ago (Hunting season) I went riding with the BCH on the Pacific
Crest Trail to the Seven Lakes Basin. Ran into a Hunter who told me to watch
out for Mt. Lions. They are big, mean and are not afraid of anything. The
Hunters had found a dead Bear that was torn apart by Mt. Lion! .The ECO
System is out of balance because of the extreme so called Environmentalists
. Saving one species at the expense of another is not sound policy. Our
Forests have also been devastated by Fires because of the same whackos who
chain themselves to Trees! Now they have destroyed the habitat for wildlife
not to mention millions of board feet of lumber that would provide habitat
for humans. Trees are a renewable resource and need tending like any garden.
