SEEK TO SAVE
STARVING ELK

Department officials are making every
possible effort to procure the needed
feed despite the serious scarcity OF
hay and forage in the region. APP
proXimately 10000 elk roam this Sec
ton of the country. They are divided
into two groups, known as the north
ern and southern herd, respectively.
The latter which winters in the vi
cinity of Jackson Hole, to the south
of Yellowstone park, is the one for
which the department of agriculture
is seeking to make provision.
Ranchmen Slow to Part With Hay.
Reports have recently been received
from government representatives in
the region of Yellowstone national
park stating that many elk are des-
tined to starve if the present severe
weather continues and if no additional
supplies of feed are provided. On the
winter elk refuge in Jackson Hole the
department has in store approximate
ly 1900 tons of hay which normally
would be sufficient to carry the south
ern herd through the winter. But cold
weather and heavy SHOWS came so
early that there is grave danger that
the animals will be without feed be-
fore many weeks have passed. Ranch
men in the region are confronted with
serious condition and are reluctant
to part with any of their hay.
Largest Herds in Country.
The northern elk herd is under the
supervision of the national park serv'
ice of the department of the interior.
which is also making every effort pos
sible to prevent loss of these animals,
These two herds are the largest elk
herds remaining in this country,
though at one time elk were to be
found in large numbers as far east
as the Blue Ridge mountains. These
animals, like the buffalo and antelope
have now been reduced to a mere
fraction of their former numbers The
few herds that remain besides those
in the vicinity of the Yellowstone park
are relatively small. Loss of many
of the animals in the larger herds
might be irreparable, say government
officials.
