Re: Deer


> Linda:  One of our nursing supervisors paid $450.00 for an elk license in
Wyoming to hunt with a friend of his who lives out there...that's the cost
of one out of state elk license that permits a hunter to take just one elk.
Poor fellow, though, spent a week hunting morning to night, before he
finally did get his elk...Expensive way to go about getting food, I'd say.

Well, don't tell him someone just gave us elk meat then!!  But you see why
hunting for meat isn't for poor people.  Actually he got off pretty
cheap--if he'd had to hire a guide or go to one of the ranches that have
hunting camps, he could have paid a lot more.  I think a lot of hunters get
their enjoyment from the week of roughing it in wild country more than
anything else--getting the elk just gives them an excuse to be out there.
Don't know what in-state licenses are going for now, but it's a whole lot
less than an out-of-state license so his friend got his meals for a lot
less.  For myself, there is something really regal about an elk--I couldn't
kill one.
