May 9, 2012 in Tofino Wildlife, Tofino Wolves

It was address to the editor of a local paper The Westerly. Dear Editor, If the information I have is correct, a total of four wolves were shot dead in Tofino recently, not just the two found in the dumpster.

Hey CBC It’s a Tofino People Problem Not a Wolf Problem

April 13, 2012 in Tofino Photos

Shame on You CBC for Typical Sensational Media-Speak CBC is falling into a typical mainstream media (of course that's what it is news-wise) mode of calling the issue at hand in Tofino a wolf problem. It's not a wolf problem it's a people problem - it's some crazed shooters firing off rifles to kill wild Tofino wolves. But as a species we all must take responsibility for it - it's a people problem. So CBC if you want to talk about what's going on here in Tofino then call it what it is - people Read more [...]

Tofino Wolves – A Second Shooter?

April 9, 2012 in Tofino Council, Tofino RCMP, Tofino Wildlife, Tofino Wolves, Tourism Tofino

Looks like it's 4 dead wolves and 3 shooters. Will Tofino law enforcement follow up on their referral and make sure the shooters are brought to answer for their deadly deeds? Will Tofino mayor and council condemn the shootings and come up with a plan to help our community and the wolves? Why do we have police and political representatives if not to safeguard the rights of wolves and the safety of the community? Tourism Tofino is this not anything you're interested in - this will kill Tofino Read more [...]

But who really killed these Tofino wolves, it's every last person who lives here. We all killed them. We killed them by not respecting their natural right of access to this land, we killed them by feeding them, we killed them by not organizing when we found out they were hunting in our backyards by Read more [...]
