[QUOTE="shaughn, post: 2997884"] Work versus gain .... is the amount of work and dollars needed to harvest, recover and process the wild cattle going to be worth it.... Look at the production an Elk, Moose, Big Horn, Goat hunt can be or the recently posted Marco polo hunt and let's get down to dollars and cents. I like to hunt, I like the taste of properly handled and cooked big game, but from a strictly financial standpoint.... the grocery store has it beat hands down. Now, to go into the bad lands and cull collect process and distribute...it would be a cost and logistical nightmare, never mind personnel. Then the impact on the region, that such a collective effort would have. You would need ground and air assets to make it work effectively. Disturb the wildlife, possibly damage terrain. So, would opening a permit to hunt make them money? Well you would have to administer it...So probably any money coming in would be eaten up by staff and other associated costs and if a small number goes for the permit, then you are back where you started and probably in the hole from a financial and a PR stand point. So Professional Cull came out the cheapest and most efficient choice. [/QUOTE]
