Bow season for elk probably in Wyoming. Used to be illegal to go armed (gun) during bow season in Wy.
Don’t know current regs as I’ve not live there in 14 yrs.
The deadly incident came weeks after a federal judge halted Wyoming state officials’ plans to hold a grizzly hunt this month, according to USA Today. The hunt was put on hold until Oct. 1.
“I can only imagine how horrific this was,” Sy Gilliland, a hunting guide and spokesman for grizzly hunters in the area, told the newspaper. “You've got a bear population that's basically un-hunted, is an apex predator, and has no fear of humans.”
So...there's lots of extra bears, apparently...who now have no fear of humans. Probably important info for those heading out that way to hunt this Fall.
Of course, it was an Obama-appointed Judge (and the usual suspects) that halted the hunt.
