Following up on our conversation, I wanted to connect you by email to Jerome Rosa, Executive Vice President of the Oregon Cattlemen's Association. As you know, Oregon ranchers are facing increasing impacts from wolf predation and added complication from the split federal/state management structure there and in Washington State. Due to these impacts, frustration is reaching a boiling point with our producers there and I thought they might benefit from a conversation with you regarding DOI's current position and efforts on the issue. I am happy to either facilitate or allow one of you to, but I'm connecting you both now via this email. Please let me know how I can help moving forward. Thank you! -EL Ethan L.
