I heard of the Inyo county Postmaster who went head to head with a cow elk outside of Lone Pine, CA on a motorcycle .I watched a similar bull cross I70 just before the C470 exit… guy on a bike doing ~110mph came flying up the left lane and got impaled on his rack.
Most gruesome accident I’ve seen.
Lone Pine Postmaster Dies in Motorcycle Accident
Some time in the early morning hours Sunday, 47-year-old Phillip Royal, Lone Pine's Postmaster, sped into an elk on the Lone Pine Narrow Gauge Rd. He died from
sierrawave.net
But in all seriousness, I think if FWP wanted to stop this BS of Road/flock shooting, they would make these public road adjacent areas Walk in by permit and set up a reservation system. Might not change the overall behavior, but at least they could write tickets before someone wounded 3 elk.
These shootfests happen in less visible places too. I recall the NE corner of Oregon all the landowners were pingponging the elk between each other all on private.
I think there is a huntin Western Wyoming near the Elk refuge known fondly as the "firing line"
It's not just a Montana thing.
