I also stopped voting for Phil Scott for Governor in the past election for his total lack of support in revamping the antiquated and hunter/ trapper driven Fish and Wildlife Department.

Oh, do not get me started on Fish and Wildlife Dept.! I had friends visiting from the UK and I told them some places they could go whilst I was busy. They took their lunch down to the CT. River and sat on a bench to eat their sandwiches. A Fish & Wildlife power guy made them put their sandwiches away and leave the area because they were not utilizing anything that demonstrate they paid into the Fish & Wildlife tax base. I was furious that tourists to VT were treated that way. Our local rep and I tried to work with the Dept. and it was just a nonsensical bureaucracy. They definitely need revamping. They argue they are only paid by fishing and boating taxes. And who the heck do they think pays taxes in Vermont? They said it is their property and they want to keep vagrants out and partiers.
It needs to be revamped. We are creating a new Town Plan and this one access to the larger river needs to be part of our right to enjoy the beauty of the river when having a sandwich. It is really embarrassing and inhuman. Like a having a freaking little waterside nazi. Sorry, you hit one of my nerves!
How about the legal massacre of coyotes 24/7/365 where the are left to rot. Bear Hounding. Trapping. All controlled by a Board made up of hunters and trappers. Vt at its worst
I am not familiar with any of that. We have been trying to educate the community on the importance of beavers to our ecosystems in creating habitats for so many creatures, for birds in the wetlands and for slowing down flood waters as well as cleaning town water by natural filtration as the water has time to seep through the sands. There are still those who want to trap or kill these magnificent creatures who will even take in a homeless muskrat. We have a lot to learn from those who do not mind hard work for the benefit and well-being of others. I am not sure they are conscious of it, but they are driven to follow some intrinsic, good impulse. We have learned to adapt our road in order to accommodate them with beaver-proof culverts in strategic places. And many people and animals enjoy the beaver pond and wetlands provided.
