To move to another topic:

I see more species of animals on Island Lake property than anywhere else around Fernie. Bear, cougar, elk, moose. This shouldn’t make sense with Island Lake being an old growth cedar forest should it? It gets more rubber tire traffic then the mountain bikers riding Hedonism – Dem Bones.

I don’t have an issue with hunting I think it is controlled and limited properly. And the level of education among hunters is at its highest I have even seen. I get this talking to my uncles in Alberta that hunt deer. My problem is you can do all the conservation but it comes down to using a gun to shoot the same animal you are trying to conserve.
