The game department is telling you about the elk problem in the Blues without actually saying “we have a problem”.

There should not be any antlerless tags in the Blues.  Giving them out is just hastening the demise the wolves are already creating.

Although I do agree with you, do you really need to ruin my fun ?  :chuckle:

100% correct they know there is a problem but they won’t admit it. Maybe we need an intervention.

Money is more important to them. I’ve been watching the devastation of the wolves over there for years. Herd numbers are drastically declining every season. And yeah at this point canning antlerless wouldn’t bother me much, but a better solution would be to wipe out those dogs

Sorry, wasn’t trying to rain on your parade.  Congrats on the tag!  Just tired of seeing no actual management of what little is left of our game herds.
