What To Do About That Pesky Elk Herd
The online poll in today’s PDN is: Should the Sequim elk herd be thinned (culled) or moved?
As of this writing, 26.6% said “thinned,” 8.6% said “moved,” 6.3% said “both” and 55% said “neither.” Presumably most of the people who want the herd “thinned” are California refugees who thought they wanted to get away from suburbia, but later realized they wanted to bring the suburbs with them.
So far this year, eleven elk have been “harvested.” If you went into a gun shop and asked where the harvesting rifles are, I guess they'd know what you were talking about.
The elk problem will probably rear its head in Brinnon too, since that luxury resort near Brinnon was approved yesterday. There's an elk herd in that area, which probably won't fare well when the new improved Brinnon gets stricken with an epidemic of Affluenza.
