Thank you, I had read an article years ago about the PA elk reintroduction but couldn't recall the origin of the stock.

About 25 years ago there were a lot of elk removed from Eastern Oregon and sent back east....dont recall which state got them...and exchanged with turkeys...

Maybe Kentucky should have been closer to 30 ish years ago. I can remember my dad working down there drilling gas wells and saw them . They were the first ones transplanted there

That's about the time the Smokey mountains got their elk. Big bulls around Cherokee N.C.

You're welcome

Minnesota is talking about bringing elk in, but they are not for hunting. The wolves ate all the moose, and Minneapolis is afraid they may migrate south and start eating rioters and looters...and they can't have that.
