I'm afraid that if WSU takes over, one of the solutions will include cutting hunters out of the equation.

True, but at the rate we are going currently (20 years of non-action from WDFW)...  Elk hunters in Southwest Washington are looking at a few more years of hunting, and by that point there really won't be enough left without hoof rot to make hunting worth while. 

It's a delicate balance between doing what is in the hunters best interest, and doing what is best in the elk's best interest.  All the things we have been asking for are coming along finally.  Independent testing and monitoring...
