RE: Elk?
 
As you guys know they have been reintroducing Elk into Kentucky for some time now and I know for a fact that many have migrated into West Virginia along the southern borders of route 119 near Williamson and Logan.

RE: Elk?
 

ORIGINAL: moonelk

:eek:Way back when this land had colonies instead of states. There was elk in every region, except for Florida. Elk are being released in Pen, Ky (2 places), Mi, Tx, Wi, Ark, and have traveled out of Wyoming to Ne, also some elk on Maui island in Hawaii. They're probably a few more states thatI haven't read about. Population in several states hinders more elk release. There was a rumur of an elk in my county in Ind. So I asked the people if they ever saw any tracks? Because elk don't fly.;)
I believe these were Merrimac Elk (as opposed to the Rocky Mountain Elk). The Merrimac Elk is extinct, but as others have stated elk have been reintroduced back east.
