Subject: re: Continue the wolf cull

 
Hon. Doug Donaldson,
Minister of Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations

Dear Mr. Donaldson:

We are writing to you about a subject which is of great concern to us. We are a club of over 200 members of Hunters, Fishers and Outdoor People.  The concern  is the populations of our caribou herds. 

The Wolf Cull in areas where caribou herds exist has proven to be a success in the last 4 years and the herds of caribou are recovering by 7 to 14 per cent per year, which is a good step in the right direction.

We urge you to do everything within your power as Minister to continue the culling of wolves.

Wolves are not at risk, have very few if any predators and can reproduce very quickly.  With the success of wolf culling, the caribou herds are slowly recovering.  Please let us see the programme continue.

Yours truly,
North Thompson Fish & Game Club,
Barriere, B.C.
