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.

PROPOSES 1993 SPRING
SOURCE AND WILDLIFE
FENCING PROJECTS
The Heppner Ranger District
of the Umatilla National Forest is
currently conducting an en
vironmental analysis for the pro
posed 1993 Spring Source and
Wildlife Projects. The proposed
projects would fence several
spring sources and suitable ruff
ed grouse habitat sites, for a total
of two miles of fence construc
tion and reconstruction around
nine acres within the East
Bologna Creek, Portuguese
Creek, and Mallory Creek sub
watersheds. These projects would
help protect fragile spring
sources, enhance hardwood and
grass/forb growth, and improve
or create ruffed grouse habitat by
reducing grazing pressure.
For additional information,

Heppner Ranger District, (503)
