The session included local ranchers and stakeholders and was aimed at fostering dialogue and identifying solutions in preparation for an upcoming congressional hearing on the subject. Congressman Bentz stated, "The growing population of wolves across Oregon is wreaking havoc for ranchers, farmers, and sportsmen. Ranchers are tired of seeing their cattle chased around and killed and hunters are tired of seeing a decline in mule deer populations. Thanks to the many people who shared their stories with me today, I can begin to use my position as the Chair of the Water, Wildlife, and Fisheries Subcommittee to educate others in Congress about this growing issue. I look forward to working on a legislative solution to fix this problem when I get back to DC." | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-07T20:21:00Z |
