Title: HOOF ROT MEETING A MUST ATTEND
Post by: bbarnes on October 21, 2013, 07:46:01 AM

Hoof Rot Update: The first meeting of the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW), Hoof Rot Working Committee, will be held October 23, 2013 at the WDFW Region 5 Office, 2108 Grand Blvd., Vancouver, WA 98661.  We hope to find some answers to questions related to the elk hoof rot issue in SW Washington.  While the public is allowed to attend, it is not clear as to the level of participation, if any they will be allowed during the meeting.  If you have any specific questions and or concerns please email them to me prior to the Oct 23rd meeting, I will present them to the committee.

I had signed up for the group before they cancelled the first meeting. I wish I'd heard about the second. I'd really like to be part of this group, BB.

BBarnes has been actively trying to get folks aware of this issue. Any SW wash elk hunter should at some level get engaged into what is happening and 'not' happening regarding this issue.
Hopefully the next public meeting announcement can get locked on the unread topic board or highlighted so it doesnt get buried.  :twocents:
