Should All National Parks Be Considered For Hunting Seasons?March 26th, 2007 . by Tom Remington
One of the first U.S. National Parks to discuss the possibility of using licensed hunters to thin and better manage elk populations was the Rocky Mountain National Park in Colorado. Not long after that, debate has begun about how best to reduce elk numbers in Theodore Roosevelt National Park in North Dakota. Now, officials for the Wind Cave National Park in South Dakota are discussing the possibilities of using licensed hunters to reduce the nearly 700 elk there down to better manageable numbers.

Isn’t it time we begin asking the question of whether or not it is in the best interest of the taxpayers of this country and for the betterment of the wildlife, to consider using a tried and proven wildlife management method of hunting for our National Parks?
