Todd I'm not a BIO like yourself. But I can still count the bodies along the Hwy. It seem like there was alot more dead animals or maybe the snow just makes them stick out more, But you're not seeing them out on the fields in any great numbers(3), we did a quick drive thru out in the eastland area, and you could counted the deer we saw on one hand and no elk was spotted. Drove up the mountain a little ways and the snow got deep in a hurry.
Talked to few guys that had been out shed hunting on Black Mesa and they haven't seen alot of deer either. Maybe the are all in Dry Valley or down in 3 steps But places that had alot of deer in them during the wintertime just aren't showing up.
Thanks for the Video it was a Great one.
I hope you are right about the amount of deer and elk that DID make it thru the winter. But I will wait and see what shows up on the mountain this spring.
