It doesn't have to be isolated to elk. He's giving elk as an example because obviously, FL has no Elk population...

In PA, like Greg stated in MO, if there is no open season, it's implied that the seasons are closed. No animal can be shot without an outlined season, HOWEVER,

Apparently there is a small pop of wild hogs now establishing themself. There is no open season on wild hog and it's not illegal to shoot them.

I understand that although the PGC claims there are no mountain lions in PA, there is a $3000 fine if you shoot one. Go figure. [&:]
