A grassroots sportsmen s group is organizing against Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife practices. The group, Citizens Organiz ing and Uniting to Guarantee American Rights (COUGAR), was formed to influence the ODFW in the way they manage big game. The group wants to see a cure for the starvation of deer and elk during severe winter conditions and maintains that ODFW has said that they will not implement supplemental feeding programs during harsh weather. COUGAR says that “ money that has already been mandated to be set aside for purchasing feed for big game in stressful winters should be used for that purpose.” They also ask that a ’’massive seeding program be im plemented. Seed could be thrown out by anyone using public lands all year round. This voluntary group of seeders could consist of hunters, fishermen, loggers, miners, woodcutters, campers, sightseers, mushroom pickers, skiers and snow m obilers, packbackers, ATV users, hikers, horseback riders, ranchers and anyone else who would like to participate such as anti-hunters and environmentalists,” said a COUGAR newsletter. “ How could anyone with a conscience say no?” they asked. COUGAR is also opposed to the way the big game lottery pro gram is conducted. According to Vern Wilson, Heppner, a member of the group, Walkers collect $750 in pledges Jesse Kempas was the top pledge collector in the Walk-a- thon held March 14, sponsored by People for the Pool. She earned a T-shirt and her name to be placed on a brick at the swimming pool site. Other T-shirt winners were (l-r): Julie Pro ctor, Kempas, Trevor Rhea and Corey Breeding. The group collected a total of $750.
