Hoof Rot

(1/6) > >>

Dirtnap:
Went out this morning, came across two different herds of elk and every single one of them was limping badly.  It’s so sad to see.  Has WDFW been looking into this issue? Is there any for sure cause? I’ve always heard herbicides and fertilizers were suspected causes.

bobcat:
I saw a herd of about 35 in Thurston county a few weeks ago, watched them for about 20 to 30 minutes. Could not spot one elk in the herd that wasn't limping. It was so sad to see.

Dirtnap:
I agree it was hard to watch, I could help but imagine the end of elk.

kentrek:
Last meat eater video about it they were working on "test" kits....30 years in and they are working on test kits

Dirtnap:
I’m tempted to do a public disclosure request to WDFW on any in all research that’s been conducted on hoff rot since the beginning.
