Timber companies spray the same crap in the northeast corner, but no hoof rot here (yet.)

I hate to say it but I think the best way to fight the disease is to bring in wolves. They will naturally cull the sick and week. And hopefully stop this from devastating elk herd everywhere.

I live in Longview right in the middle of hoof rot central. I hunt a lot of different state and private timber company land. I have never seen a elk with hoof rot on state land. Weyerhaeuser land is the worst for hoof root and sierra pacific is a close second. My buddy that lives across the river in Oregon said that they killed a few bulls over there last year that had hoof rot the land was bought by Weyerhaeuser in the last few years. I feel it is something they are using to spray or I would be seeing the herds on stage land with it.

And a confirmed case in the blue mountains.  There is no weyerhauser land down there. Just because there is correlation, doesnt mean there is causation !

They will naturally cull the sick and the weak. Also, the young and the healthy.
