Collaring Calf Elk | Part II of What are elk eating?

 

 

In collaboration with the University of Montana and RMEF, Montana FWP is collaring elk calves to gain a better understanding of the elk population in Region 1. Calves are being collared because their survival can have a significant impact on the elk population. The collected data will help determine the survival rate of calf elk to adulthood and, if they do not survive, the potential causes of their death, such as predation.
