There are several high fence elk shooting ranches here in eastern Idaho. I always assumed the customers of such establishments know what they are getting when they book a shoot.
They raise many of them in a few different fields not too far from my house. You can go watch them through the fence. They load a few at a time in trailers and haul them up to the ranch as they need them. The guides usually know the elk pretty well because they helped haul them from the pasture to the ranch. I'm not judging, just saying how it is.
