Hoof rot in the mashel?

[huntnfmly]

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 .

Straight from the biologist that I was asking some questions about those herds that they do travel as far as Mt st helens and mingle with those herds yearly

They don't have to travel all the way to the mountain to mingle with elk from the "St. Helens'" herd. Cowlitz valley is a pretty direct conduit between the 2 areas.

I imagine it's more like a-to-b, then b-to-c, then c-to-d and so on rather than a-to-z

That is what I meant by overlap.

I am "sure" it has nothing to do with the pesticides/herbicides Hanckock is using...and Weyerhaeuser...

No need to overlap herds with it, if it's cause by bacteria in the soil, when the tree farms are being farmed the same way and have the same climate (wet/moist decaying matter and pesticides/herbicides)
