I am writing to update you on three items:
-
I have scheduled a conference call (based on your availability from the Doodle poll) for next Wednesday, April 27, from noon to 1:30 p.m. The conference call is for information sharing and to answer questions related to the flipchart notes and narrative from the Department’s brainstorming session on a path to lethal control of wolves. The call-in number is 360-407-3780. I will send the Pin Code for WAG members and Department staff in a separate email. All WAG events are open to the public - the public may listen to the call from a muted line using the same call-in number, with Pin Code 508957#.

Our next WAG meeting is scheduled for May 10-11 at the Days Inn (901 Berry Rd, Ellensburg, WA 98926) in Ellensburg.

Lunch will be provided both days to WAG members and Department staff, and we have reservations for a non-working dinner on Tuesday evening. An agenda will be circulated in a later email. All WAG events are open to the public.

WDFW Enforcement Police are investigating a suspected wolf poaching incident in Pend Oreille County, involving a member of Idaho’s Diamond wolf pack.
As always, please let me know if you have any questions or concerns.
