I can agree with that. They need to drive them off the park so we can have a more healthy population in the hunting units but at the same time volunteer hunters would be a good route to take.

In a weird sort of way, they actually do in this case. Although they don't realize it. The more elk that are in the park, the more elk that can leave and populate our public lands, thus increasing our hunting opportunities in the long term. Many times doing nothing is the best thing. I would like to see them lower the fence in about 100 places though...

I am sure that rounding up the Elk and euthanizing them would be the most cost effective way of managing the herd as well. Why is that even an option?

I am not holding my breath either. Agendas are present and they cloud judgment on doing the right thing which is supporting amendments to rid the current rules from burdensome text.
