Gonna be calves dying from COVID 😬

And these are things that will happen. All that stuff that I just talked about, the pre the the predation of all the huntable species incidents, run-ins with humans, pets, livestock, all that stuff is going to happen. But even then, it’s hard to see the state changing course. They are going to deny the adverse effects and try to skew numbers to make it look even better than it is. And that’s what’s going to happen. Anything that’s not absolutely confirmed, just barely short of having it on video, that a wolf killed your dog or that a mountain lion killed a calf out in a cattle pasture. They’re not going to attribute that to either of those things. They’re going to attribute it to something else. Natural causes, maybe CO, who knows? But it won’t be mountain lions or wolves.

I don’t know what they’ll say these animals died from, but it’ll be anything other than the predators they let loose. That’s for sure.
