[QUOTE="Dr. Vette, post: 670419, member: 22335"] Fixed it for you. :D Having hunted in the Paradise Valley in 2007 and 2009 and then visited in 2010 I'll say this - the elk herd truly is 1/4 of what it was not many years ago, and yes it's due to the wolves. We had a great outfitter whose hunting business has been decimated by the wolf reintroduction and I feel truly sorry for him. I would not pick anything in any wolf area if you want to find an elk. This includes Montana, Idaho or Wyoming. It's easy enough to Google a map of the current wolf habitat area and see what you should avoid. Most outfitters will be honest with you as well. I hope that someday the elk numbers will bounce back to the level of 15 years ago but I'm not holding my breath on that one... [/QUOTE]
