Stace, I appriciate the job that you do, and the fact that you took the time to respond to mine and others frustration on this topic. I am also a publicly paid employee and know all too well the current standard of having to do more and more with less and less. No doubt in my mind that fish and game has too much to do with not enough funding or people to do this job with. But this is an area that is quite hypocritical to me. Its comparable to a cop arresting a drunk driver while being intoxicated himself. Whats good for the public should be good for the folks charged with enforcing policy/law. And if Forest Service/Fish and Wildlife cant abide by the law, they shouldnt come down on the public (who PAYS for the system) for doing the same. I will never question the quality and quantity of work you have to do, but this is simply a matter of FAIRNESS. Again I appriciate your job and your dedication its plain to see, I just hope you can see my point is all. Thanks again
