I have been requested to hunt in a development by a buddy of mine. I showed him how to shoot a bow and he killed a cow in back of his garage. His neighbor came out all pissy about killing the elk. He turned and said if you pay for my 25,000 dollars landscape yard I will not shoot them. His neighbor did not say anything after that. But did say if it died on his property he would call the fish and game and the police. So you are right there will be some stupid SOB that will kill an elk in someone’s front yard which will make all hunters look bad. But some of his other neighbors want to him to kill one for them. I told him that would be illegal. Since elk are not stupid if they kill a few cows out of their community the elk will leave that area or only come in when it is dark. Then the home owners would need to set up proximity sensors for their sprinkler system.
