Don't know if I heard this here or somewhere else but I understand the MO DNR has approved the reintroduction of elk into the state.

The part I am most interested in is that one of the supposed primary initial stocking areas was said to be around Lake Wappapello. Any one heard anything....

I do not want to start a pro/con elk reintroduction thread... Just wondering

There's a thread going on regarding this in the Hunting Legislation and Policies Forum.

Already a small number near Branson that have moved up from Arkansas on their own. The reintroduction area is near the Current River: Peck Ranch CA.

More details in the hunting legislation and politics forum. (http://tradgang.com/noncgi/ultimatebb.php?ubb=get_topic;f=93;t=000492)

Elk will be trapped from disease free, 10,000-12,000+ animal herd in Kentucky.
