That's my point. I don't know. I might not have any. I would think anybody with one of those ranches that's charging big money knows what animals are there. How else would they have any control?

It's still not natural to me. The elk I hunt are free to run where they want. They can migrate, move from hunting pressure, and move to where the food is better. They can act as elk with no restrictions. It's up to us as hunters to figure out where they'll be.


btw I only hunt elk in Colorado. So, keep your examples here. What's the biggest fenced hunt here? How many elk does it hold?
