Hoof rot in the mashel?
« on: August 31, 2021, 11:55:46 AM »
It’s a quick video but this herd travels down to meet up with herds in the St. Helens area thought I would post
Very easily could be something else but it really looks concentrated on his hoof
Sad to see either way
What say you and let me know if the video is showing

This is the first year I have seen it in the area. But have seen herds in 3 different sections of the mashel/puyallup herds that have had it this year. 3 separate herds sucks to see because I am sure there are more. All have been on private lands.

Unfortunately when you see one limping there is more infected.    :sry:         Its all over the state now and down into Oregon as well.   Hopefully it doesn't wipe out the heard there like it did around St Helens.  On the bright side I am starting to see more animals in bigger groups down here. Hoping its ran its course and they have gotten some immunity to it.

He definitely has something wrong with his foot, you can't say for sure but the best money would be on hoof rot.

Im sure it is hoof rot . Unfortunately it is spreading like crazy especially in the last 10 years .
 
But highly doubt any elk from the Mashel migrate as far as the St. Helens units . It is spread overtime by overlap at that distance and herd dynamics .
I also wander about the spreading of contaminated soil that has been moved around by humans and vehicles .

And of course people discarding contaminated elk parts .
