Interesting info here.

I've been hunting the SW Corner of 506 four years straight now and have NEVER seen one single case of hoof rot. I know from reports there have been a few cases within 25 miles of where I hunt. Never heard anyone that hunts in the area of the unit even talk about seeing any cases.

I know it's in the whole northern end of 506

Ive heard its in the N end of 506, never seen in in southern or midwestern side. Never seen or heard of it in BR unit either a little further west.
Wierd deal but wolves are surely not the answer. IMHO it has to be from the cross contamination of livestock.

i think interducing wolves would be idiotic. I also think if they did that the wolves would be the most skidish creatures on earth. The willapa hills are not very remote and there isn't anywhere a human can't go. Most of the locals would have no qualms with managing the wolf population themselves and with little place to hide the wolves would be paranoid schizophrenics.....

I saw an elk this year in the Winston GMU that had a white rear leg.  It was limping quite a bit and carrying that leg off the ground while walking.  I am not sure if it was hoof rot or not.  Does this sound like something that goes along with hoof rot? 
NO Wolves, they are not the answer for any wildlife management problems.

One of the cows we shot in the Toutle unit this year had Hoof Rot. She has been delicious ;)
