You didn't pay for elk restoration in Kentucky unless you are a member of the Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation. The only thing KDFWR provided was manpower and worked out cooperative landowner agreements.
WRONG even if all ky supplied was man power WHO paid their salaries!!!!!! KY hunters when they bought hunting and fishing license...... And what did the states get for their elk???? I think it may have been turkeys that I saw being shipped out west. Turkeys that the hunters won't have the chance to hunt . JUST LIKE THE ELK they are sending out. AND was the moratorium lifted on taking bovine across state lines ????? Once again we have EDUCATED IGNORANCE making calls in Frankfort. Same ones who keep saying the deer herd is what it used to be . PEOPLE who aren't out there in the field and NOT seeing what isn't there....
