Herd shot at Doty , WA

[Alan K]

The elk down there are already hurting pretty bad with the hoof rot.  I'll be down there next week during spring break to visit my mom.  I also know a guy that works for Weyerhauser out of Pe Ell, I'll ask him if he knows anything if I bump into him.

I heard from a good sources with the WDFG and 2 timber companies down there that in fact they are purging elk down there with hoof rot and they are using AHE Hunters to do it for them.

The incident with the cows and the calfs in Grays Harbor are sperate all together.

Why would they not use the meat? Hoof rot doesn't hurt the meat at all. If that is so that is just as skick since so many people sure could use the meat.

There were two herds shot up in Grays Harbor county, the one in the North River area three cows and a calf, and on super bowl weekend there was another herd shot up near Neilton.....11 elk killed, one spike, one raghorn, the rest cows and calves.....only seven were taken, four are still laying on the ground......

If the hoof rot is bad enough it does hurt the meat.. The meat will turn all grean and slimmy and smelly!! Dont eat it if it is bad!! You will be walking with a limp next hunting season!!

Does anybody know if they will post how many animals were killed during this hoof rot round up? I would like to see the numbers, but do not think the department will post anything
