Nash bill would increase money to livestock producers hurt by wolves [Oregon]
From ElkHornMediaGroup.com:
SALEM – Sen. Todd Nash (R-Wallowa) has introduced a bill that he says would make compensation fairer for livestock producers hurt by wolf depredation. He said the legislation has a lucky number. It’s Senate Bill 777.
The measure provides that compensation for injury to livestock or working dogs under the wolf compensation and financial assistance grant program must be based on fair market value as well as other factors. Ward said that many livestock producers have stopped filing for some compensation because of a system they see to be flawed.
