I wonder if they are going to auction off the antlers :rolleyes:
I'm sure the elite shooters will be allowed to keep their "trophies"

I kind of think that if this story is confirmed, they did this because of the fiasco there 4 years ago - a true public relations nightmare, but actually created by the DFW and hunt coordinator by not carefully laying out the plan for the MHs to cull those animals. This may be their reasoning for not using MHs or tag holders this time. It may also have been a request by the county because of that. We still have to wait and see.

This really wouldn't surprise me at all if it's confirmed. After reading ucwarden's Operation Cody, it's very clear to me that the admin of the DFW cares little about wildlife or our hunters.

I wondered the same dang thing Coach.   By the way, if this elk thing is true, I hope the ELITE shooters are a little better than the ones used for the sheep. :o :o :o :o

Yeah, you're right. I know the snipers came in unmarked vans with tinted windows, and had backup support from black helicopters. It was secretly planned by the Obama administration as a ploy to distract attention from the economy. The snipers used ammunition available only to the military, which has been hording it for an upcoming attack on the populace.

I knew all that, but didn't want to alarm anyone. There - now it's out there.

Sounds like when WDFW came in and wiped out the elk herd here in the Methow because of the damage to the orchards.

....and I thought it was the wolves that wiped out the herd? I guess I'll be needing a tinfoil hat when reading these type of posts. :chuckle:

Ccortez seems to have a good amount of information:

:yeah:  it would be 5,000-6,000 lbs meat...   :rolleyes:

More then that
Two bulls weighed a combined weight of 922

Are you directly involved in this event? 

Care to share what your link is or how you know such specific information?
