Hubby sees elk on his way to work occasionally.

He sees bears regularly too.  Yesterday he saw an unlucky bear.  Always makes him sad to see them even near a highway. It's such a reminder of how much we have crowded the poor things out.

Yes Michel....very sad.  He said it was a bad one.  It's just so wrong to see them so close to the ways of a city.  As thrilled as I am when I see one....immediately after, I feel sad.

  Yup...there is quite a large population of elk on the Island.  I think it was a rather old study....maybe 2002 or 2003, but it stated that there are approximately 3200 elk in British Columbia....3000 of which are on Vancouver Island.

East Kootenays seems to be loaded with elk. Friends out there always have a deep freezer full. best steaks I ever had were elk.

A bad one ? the bear was bad or the accident was a bad one ?


Both.
