Heads up! 5 vacancies in Medora, ND (Theodore Roosevelt National Park) for mass culling of elk.

Seems like the feds have it backwards. They should turn this over to the NDDFG who could establish bag limits, schedule hunts (archery, rifle, muzzie)and sell tags. I thought management of the wildlife of a state was the responsibility of that state. Especially after the preservationist policies of the NPS have gotten this population so far out of balance.

My guess is the rabidly anti-hunting NPS wants to make this elk-killing business appear as distasteful as possible, to appease their tree-hugging and PETA constituency. Heaven forbid that they might actually generate some revenue from tax paying, law abiding, ethical and competent hunters, who might even take their families along.
