Regarding the dead elk on hwy 82, nobody seems to bring to attention that the elk seem to constantly get hit in the same areas of 82. The two main areas from GS to ZG are infront of Aspen Glenn and right infront of the entrance to Wild Cat Ranch? Maybe these two develpments should be paying the cost of underground tunnels for the animals?
But I can't really imagine something like that happening anytime soon. Pretty sad but true.
Last thing, can't these animals be harvested and given to familys in need? I thought there was a system in place for that already?

Another cow elk on the side of 82 next to Wildcat ranch today?
Rember the Buffalo!

The problem with harvesting an elk that has been killed with blunt force trauma is that the meat is ruined...it is bruised beyond eatable. So thats out....how about people just slow down at night. Down in Florida, there are two posted speed limits for day and night in the everglades to prevent this exact thing from happening...and it worked.

What's that? Getting whacked by a deacon wielding a communion plate?
