UT and CO swap Moose for Sheep
I remember hearing about a "grant" of some elk to some of the eastern states a while back. It has been so successful that Kentucky has had their first elk season since before anyone in that state can remember. I believe Pennsylvania is looking at having an elk season in the near future. Hard to believe, but the wildlife numbers, pretty much across the board, are better in this country than they have been in well over a hundred years. Believe I even heard there are more whitetails running around right now than when the Europeans first set foot here. All of the DOW's, DWR's, DFG's or whatever your state goes by have been involved in some type or another of swapping or "granting" game for years. Most go unpublished and unnoticed. So next time you run into your friendly Game Warden, shake his hand and say, "Thanks!"
It ain't the size of the gun but the placement of the bullet.
