They hit elk... in the asz, legs, guts.. here is the latest cow elk I watched get her leg blown in half by a POS who never followed up after he hit her. I tracked her all night and found her the next day. I don't have a tag and was not legal in finishing her off. She was just one of the many I watched die from the unethical lawbreaking ?hunters?.
The POS that shot her ran like a puss after he noticed he was being watched chasing the herd down in his truck off road on BLM.
Add in all the trespassing and poaching, it's a disaster.
As for some not being aware of units that are open for 4 months of elk and 3 months is deer obviously don't look at units in the Butte, Custer and Lemhi counties.
Look under the Lemhi A tag as well as the Whitetail deer tags for central Idaho. Not northern Idaho.
Saw one guy shoot a doe with twins on a public road just last week. Absolutely sick.
