REWILDING, a.k.a. "Landscape scale conservation", is now the official policy of the United States Department of Interior. Removing "GAPS" to biological diversity, and/or eliminating "stressors" on wildlife populations caused by human factors required the establishment of new mechanisms to enable management of natural resources across international boundaries on both public and private land. These mechanisms …
ABBEY’S ROAD – A Wide Path to Destruction
Edward Paul Abbey (1927-1989) was known as one of the founding fathers of the modern day environmental movement. As an astute observer of nature, Ed Abbey demonstrated a talent for describing the raw beauty of the natural world.

MEGA-REGIONS and AMERICA 2050
Our Constitutional form of government was created and instituted to protect and serve the population, not enslave it. Yet today bureaucratic managers at all levels of government are exerting control over our lives that we never dreamed possible in America. Every governmental action seems focused on forcing compliance to a new set of societal norms. …
CONGRESSMEN ENDORSE REWILDING – Theatre of the Absurd
In a letter dated March 4, 2013, fifty-two members of Congress directed U.S. Fish and Wildlife Services Director Dan Ashe to commit to the total REWILDING of the United States by retaining endangered species classification for wolves. The letter begins with a lie, and ends with more lies. Here’s the first whopper: “The reintroduction of …

ECO-FANATICS – Why do they hate us?
Ever heard the phrase, “If you repeat a lie often enough, it will be believed”? Of course this doesn’t mean that a lie actually becomes the “truth”, but rather that the lie is believed to be “true” by brainwashed people who then turn it into an operational component of their worldview. When there are enough …
TROPHIC CASCADE THEORY – House of Cards
Trophic cascades are said to occur when a top tier predator (such as a wolf) impacts a particular ecosystem by suppressing the abundance of prey or otherwise influences the distribution or behavior of other species, including non-prey animals, other large predators, and plant species. Introducing or removing a so-called “top-tier” predator from any habitat obviously …
KNOW THY ENEMY – The Environmental Death Cult
Updated from my original article- “Return to the Primitive” c. 2005. [1] It is NOT a coincidence that Al Gore’s global warming propaganda masterpiece, Earth in the Balance, was found among Ted Kaczynski’s belongings in his ramshackle hovel in rural Montana. For those who may be historically challenged or suffering from memory loss, Ted Kaczynski was …

WOLVES – Nature’s Sanitizers?
Environmentalists like to claim that wolves are the "sanitizers" of nature and fill an essential role in maintaining a "balanced" ecosystem. The mantra goes that wolves only eat the old, the sick, and the disabled. Of course nothing could be further from the truth. Wolf biologists and other wildlife observers in various countries all over …
WILD HORSES – Symbol of the American West or an Invasive Species?
[Edited and updated August 10, 2014] Before we talk about wild horses, let's look at another species often depicted, at least by Hollywood, as a symbol of the American West. The iconic tumbleweed is considered a complex and highly advanced plant. The most common tumbleweeds are the Russian Thistles (Salsola tragus, S. australis, S. iberica, …

THE HOWLING – Reflections on the Rocky Mountain Wolf Recovery Program and the Implications for Non-migratory Caribou and Elk
This a reprint of an article I wrote that was originally published March 1, 2004 on Henry Lamb's Freedom.org webpage. I've included a link to the original article and an addendum. Caribou used to inhabit much of the northern border area between the United States and Canada, and as recently as the 1950s, were seen …
WE SURRENDER! – New Bounty Share Program aims to REWILD the Left Coast
Those of us who live in conservative rural counties across the western United States have decided we are no longer going to resist the REWILDING agenda imposed on us by the liberal mob. To all those in favor of forcing us to live with wolves, we sincerely regret attempting to stand in your way as …

The Wolf Tax – A Brutal Reality
A tax is a sum of money demanded by a government for its support. Taxes and fees are most often levied upon incomes, property, activities, and sales. The imposition of wolves on rural America will go down in history as the most burdensome tax ever inflicted on human society. The United States taxpayer funded Grey …
MENE, MENE, TEKEL, UPHARSIN – The Writing on the Wall
“Know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God.” (James 4:4) [Article updated 6/13/15] It seems to me that the intentional spreading of wolves into all of the areas where they were formerly extirpated from is one …

KILLING INDIANS – The Plan to Rewild the Rest of the Planet
[Updated 12/5/12 with a note to my readers in Sweden.] Now that we know cowboys are an endangered species here in the American west, maybe we should think about how some of the indigenous people around the globe are also being negatively affected by rapidly expanding wolf populations and top down political control. The Sami, …

STAND, AND BE OF GOOD CHEER!
It doesn't take long to earn the ire of the green dragon.

As a result of multiple lawsuits filed by the Center for Biological Diversity, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service has been forced to draft a Jaguar Recovery Plan for the Southwest United States.

HISTORY REVISITED – Digging for the truth
[Re-edited 3/5/2022] Historical revisionism has gotten a bad rap. While we should reject fanciful notions put forth without any corroborating evidence, revising the historical account to reflect the truth of what actually happened is not only invaluable, it is absolutely essential to enable mankind to come to grips with the reality of the human condition. …
OF MEN AND WOLVES – Discerning the difference
There is an old Russian proverb that says, “When wolves form packs, it portends the coming of starvation, plagues and wars.” [1] Throughout Russian history, indeed world history, there is evidence that wolf numbers increase substantially just prior to, and during times of severe economic depression, famine, and war. It is an historic fact …

LIVING WITH WOLVES Pt. 5 – The GAP Theory
There's a few more things to note about wolf recolonization before we can fully understand the implications of the GAP Analysis program and its connection to the rewilding agenda. The “science” employed to rewild our planet is built on vain philosophy, arbitrary (and often warped) notions of what constitutes “good” and “evil”. For this reason, …
LIVING WITH WOLVES Pt. 4 – A Breakdown in Governance
Updated 10/16/12 - “The introduction and spread of wolves in the United States will one day – not now – be considered a disaster in wildlife conservation with nothing to celebrate....

LIVING WITH WOLVES Pt. 3 – Strategies and Suggestions
The map at right indicates projected "mega-linkages", or proposed wildlife corridors for large keystone predator and prey species in North America. These maps were developed by The Wildlands Project, tireless advocates for "rewilding" the continent of North America by returning to conditions that existed 500 years ago. The proponents of rewilding have compiled much more …

LIVING WITH WOLVES Pt. 2 – Where’s the beef?
Why should we care that so many people want to see cattle ranching restricted or eliminated in Washington State in order to make room for more wolves? Isn’t eating red meat bad for you anyway? Why should we allow individuals to profit from grazing cattle on public range land? Don’t all those cows pollute rivers …

LIVING WITH WOLVES – What to expect next
Yesterday's Washington State Fish and Wildlife Commission Hearing on Implementation of the 2012 Wolf Plan lasted 5 hours. The packed hearing was streamed live from Olympia over the web. Vociferous public criticism of the WDFW decision to remove the Wedge Pack was evidence that the decision left a bitter taste in the mouths of wolf …
THE REWILDING OF THE PLANET – A Strategy of Wolves
In January 1995, 14 grey wolves were imported from Canada and released into Yellowstone National Park. An additional four wolves were introduced into Idaho's Frank Church Wilderness and eleven more along the Middle Fork of the Salmon River. In 1996, 20 more wolves were released into the Frank Church Wilderness area. Over the last two …
