I think we sold them?

Some scuttlebutt going around about 7 figures per wolf.

The Beaver trapping ban won't matter much along with any other trapping if the feds in DC get their wish and sell off all of the public land in the west.

I'm hoping they get distracted and/or are just talking.

Also, lawsuits will fly to challenge the sales. Fingers crossed.

I hope they sell everything, but 10% per State. No State needs more than 10% owned by the government. Private property is bedrock of the U.S., not public property.

Boooo!!! Hisss!!!!!!!!!!!

Don't you worry all these supposed Conservatives will be libtards on this issue.

They are looking to sell 625 square miles around cities for housing out of a million square miles.

Now stop bringing receipts to bear Rat. The TDS crowd does not like to be shown facts…lol

Hey, The link below is from Howl for Wildlife. Take 3 minutes and e-mail the committee, then submit written testimony. It will take you as long as it takes to post on this thread, and maybe it'll help.

It's super easy, and it autogenerates the e-mail for you

I think this is just the beginning goal. The end goal is the Sovereign Wealth Fund financed by selling billions in Federal public land. Which I support .

Sovereign Wealth Fund. I'm sure that would be beneficial to all mankind.

You can build a lot of houses on 400,000 acres

They are looking at 7 million.

There shouldn't be any federal land other than DC.

Selling government ground should fairly much kill the last of the fur market.

Fewer places with better access than the privately held forest lands of northern Maine. Zero fed.lands, as it should be.

It is pretty dang nice to head out into the desert and know that more than half of the land out there is my own personal stomping grounds with no need to knock on a door for access. Any of us trappers in the western states will fight tooth and nail to keep it that way I'm pretty certain.

I mis spoke, we actually have a 90 thousand acre National monument that was created a few years back. First thing they did was ban trapping and for the most part hunting. Was some very productive ground that I had stomped for many years.

I live in a county where three quarters of the land is federally owned. It's one of the poorest counties in Arkansas. There's no room for development of industry due to the lack of property available.
As for state owned land if the will of the people in that state want state government to purchase land for public use then so be it. Let local folks decide what to do with the land, not bureaucrats in Washington DC.
