Do we want to add Elk in the area proposed at a high dollar expense. Will it be like Moose,at low populations only native Americans can hunt them yet Sportsmen and women foot the bill. The management of Moose at present is difficult enough when you have one group still harvesting Moose,the other group shows restraint.

Elk could also be the vector in passing CWD onto Moose because of their extreme mobility and movement.

I love Elk but not under the circumstance of managing the herd for different purposes for different groups.

It will cost the State Millions to manage it it.

It will also compete for deer and out compete them in winter time. Thus less deer.

From: Could elk reintroduction fall victim to CWD concerns?
