Michael Galleher, Lyle El Woodcock and Ted W. Peckham take on "Measure 18,"
a law that regulates how we manage dangerous and destructive wildlife.
Oregon passed a bad law. Perhaps urban voters
thought they were mandating "humane" hunting
techniques for cougars and bears.
We say this is a bad and dangerous law.
Cougars are increasingly in the news for attacking and killing people.
We want to reverse this well-intentioned but poorly-thought-out law.
We want to reverse it before more people are injured or killed.
We point out how things could rapidly get much much worse.
