Missouri Elk

[Fink]

We finally get us some elk in Missouri, and the mountain lions (that we don't have ) are already killing them.. Next thing you know, we're gonna have a herd of wolves down here too...

That doesn't surprise me. Southern MO is wild. Cool pic.

Why does Game and Fish or the DNR always deny that Mountain Lions and Wolves exist in areas where hunters KNOW that they do?

It probably has something to to with the fact that acknowledgement leads to management, and they would probably rather hold off on managing the species until there is a more defined population?
