Dear Leaders of the ESDILAGH first Nation Government.
I am writing to enquiry on your groups harvest policy.
My question are.
1.Who decides that there is allowable harvest in a region that has the smallest elk population in the province(less than 200 according to most recent population survey I could find) and from a isolated herd at that.
2.How do you decide which band member will be conducting the so called harvest.
3. As a band manager and a leader of a community do you feel a march harvest of a elk is the best way to be a role model for your community.
I am not anti harvest I have lived my entire life of the bounty of British Colombia and believe sustainable harvest is the key.
The great grasslands of the Chilcotin could sustain a larger elk herd than anywhere else in the province however they seem to be harvested before given a chance,.
Concerned harvester
