[QUOTE="deleted user, post: 370442, member: 1778"] I can see this being the case if you only get your info from this site or the CWD facebook page. Those obsessed with proving the G&F wrong about bait piles are a small fraction of the hunters and landowners in ND. It's not from the biggest issue on their table. Tearing out trees, burning sloughs, plowing marginal lands to dirt is doing more harm to the herds and birds than CWD or anything else ever will. G&F is doing some great things with private land biologists, fisheries, etc., most of it goes unnoticed because we are a little spoiled. I just read some comments on KFYR where the game and fish are stocking pike in cottonwood pond in Bismarck. Some morons up in arms that they aren't stocking walleye, even though it is very warm at about 8 ft at the deepest and freezes each year. More morons complaining that the GF is allowed to stock fish, but they would be fined if they did so on their own. Seriously? Not like they understand the carrying capacity, potential runoff issues, strain makeup, ANS risks. I could go on. All I'll say is as a kid, I would have been over the moon about a pike pond in the neighborhood, and I think we lose sight of the value of opportunity. Our state will always be at mother nature's ultimate will, no matter what any biologist or landowner does. Just not enough habitat to go around. It gets old reading complaints about not enough animals, too many animals, wrong kinds of fish, too much winterkill. Maybe i just need to unplug for a while. [/QUOTE]
