[QUOTE="coloelk52, post: 1767942, member: 112145"] SW Colorado is currently experiencing the end of any sustainable elk herds. According the the local CPW people, out of 100 cows, only 10 get bred, out of those 7 have calves, out of those 3 survive the 1st year. Why? the rut is being so interupted by people in the woods at that time. The animals are doing more running away from people than mating. At the same time they are selling OTC tags to anyone with the money. There are other factors in play, but the worst of the situation comes down to CPW selling out the elk for the dollars. And in the end it circles backto the politicians not wanting to give any tax money to CPW, they'd rather give it to drug programs, and providing heshe bathrooms. This is not only a SW Colorado issue, my buddies that hunt south of Wyoming had fresh snow the 1st night of 2nd season. It took them 5 days to find a single elk track. his is going to be a real tough deal to try and get turned around. [/QUOTE]
