Washington Cattlemen want to try an “experiment” on your wildlife management areas
It seems that bad ideas just never go away. Even after they’ve been spanked in court, the Washington Cattlemen still want to waste tens, if not hundreds, of thousands of taxpayer dollars on this ridiculous exercise which is damaging to the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife owned and managed, wildlife management areas in Washington State. More welfare grazing disguised as an “experiment”.
Do you want to help WWP stop this again?

It is really time to get angry about these welfare ranchers using their political pull to take over the state wildlife management areas.
Please donate so WWP can fight these bastards again.
These welfare ranchers disgust me.
GAAAHHH!! Just like a plan for a dam never seems to completely die, those who want to protect our environment always have to be on the defensive.

Was it David Brower who said something to the effect that regarding the environment “Every victory is temporary; every defeat is permanent.”?
