Personally, I don't want biased non-expert people on my state commissions. I'm tired of "the few" ruining it for the rest of us. Conservation is legitimate and a value held by many many people who never hunt. Hunting isn't bad but it shouldn't be the main focus of our management practices […]

How Olympia Quietly Ended the Skagit Steelhead Season - PNW Daily Washington did not close the Skagit steelhead season through biology or public debate, they just removed the funding.

If you're not pissed at what is going on in Olympia, I get it, there is a lot going on to be angry about. But this tax and spend session is anything but fiscally or ethically defensible #WDFW #Skagit #steelhead pnwdaily.com/2026/02/02/o...

Official sign from the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife designating our 20-acre property a Certified Wildlife Habitat. On a blue background, a raccoon, hummingbird, butterfly, owl, bird and bee live among native plants depicted in black & white. The WDFW logo appears in the center. At the top: "Certified Wildlife Habitat." We're very proud.

Part of our little 20-acre habitat is wetlands. 🐸🐢🐍🐟🐌🕷

We're super proud to post this sign.

Why aren’t hunters and environmentalists better allies? - Columbia Insight The outdoor community is missing a critical opportunity to get what everyone wants … a healthier environment Divided by: Recent events in Washington have made hunters and enviros appear on opposites ...
