#2 Strict conservation requires that the number of animals in a given area not exceed their food supply. We have the same problem in Colorado with elk, bear, deer, Rocky Mountain Bighorns, mountain goats, and a few other animals. The Air Force Academy had a herd of about 650 animals a few years ago. They captured and transported 300 to another area. Half of those came back. Bears and mule deer are commonly seen in Colorado Springs and many Denver suburbs. The annual deer cull in Colorado has been less than necessary for the last two years. There may be an extended season next year to help reduce the overall numbers. It's either that or have diseased animals transmitting their problems to other animals and household pets.
