Comments on: Moose & Elk To Get GPS Collars https://boiseguardian.com/2010/12/06/moose-elk-to-get-gps-collars/ A different slant on the news. Thu, 09 Dec 2010 16:51:47 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.9.4 By: Cyclops https://boiseguardian.com/2010/12/06/moose-elk-to-get-gps-collars/#comment-21134 Thu, 09 Dec 2010 16:51:47 +0000 https://boiseguardian.com/?p=5722#comment-21134 Let’s see! Wolves kill lots of Elk Moose, and Deer. When the snow gets deep these animals move to lower elevation for food. Wolves follow them and continue to eat them as their primary food source. If the snow is too deep, they will die of exposure or lack of food. Then the wolves will feed on the carcasses When the snow leaves, they return to the high meadows and then the wolves will specialize in taking the fawns and calves. There are significantly fewer game animals today than 10 years ago. Now, how much money will be spent for these same results? Looks like someone got an “A” in grant writing!!!!

He’s probably looking for work. While he’s at it, maybe he should put one of them collars on his own self, so it’s easier to keep track of HIM!

(Sorry. I digress.)

EDITOR NOTE–Sounds like you are the kinda guy who would turn around “deer whistles” on car bumpers during the season too!

Good thing they don’t have rifles, I guess.

EDITOR NOTE–Gordon, you talkin’ about the critters or the choppers having rifles?
