Sounds like they should be opening up the west kootenay moose as well as the elk, if they want to keep the caribou viable. I think this is what scientific types call a "wicked problem" (ie. no easy answers).

Not necessarily for scientific types, mostly just consumptive users, and when it comes to predator control, the public, because of folks like the darimont, genoveli and pacquet. :wink: No I don't consider those to be proper nouns......
