Go to Tennessee to shoot an elk? No thanks, I would rather go there to sip some whiskey.

I believe the Elk Foundation is part of the auction for this tag in Tennessee. Seems to me that this would benefit all of us, Tennessee hunt or not!!

Was it Tennessee that transplanted Utah elk in exchange for Turkeys??

No, the elk came from Canada and Land Between the Lakes.

I think around 200 elk were transplanted into marginal habitat, and after around 6 or 7 years, the herd has increased slowly to an estimated 300 animals.

The CWD outbreak really put a halt to the reintroduction program, with only a fraction of elk transplanted than they had originally hoped to relocate.

TN has certainly traded/sold it's fair share of turkeys over the years to other states, but primarily to TX.
