Arkansas Hillbilly Elk

The herd isnt really big, but doing well. RMEF and the AGFC have worked hard to get it to where it is. Below are some nice photos. For those interested, I've attached a link from the Arkansas Game and Fish Commission on their history and reintroduction to Arkansas.

That's awesome!! Do your locals Bi$&H about them as much as ours do?

Some do, some don't. The real pain for landowners are sightseers that trespass. September is a good time for watching. The larger herd hangs close to the road, so you get to see some incredible rutting/bugling action.
