This week's episode starts off a multi-part discussion with Mike Schlegel, former [elk] Research Biologist and Regional Wildlife Manager with the Idaho Fish and Game about Idaho's history with wolves, and the wolves that were released/reintroduced there. Although there were at least five topic/bullet points to dive into at the start of this conversation, Chris and Mike only got to point number two in the span of three hours, so follow-up discussions are in order, and are definitely forthcoming! LOL! In this episode Chris and Mike talk about:
– Kansas whitetail and turkey realities of today;
– Spring elk calving habitat vs. spring bear habitat and ungulate predation;
– Idaho's history regarding their wolf reintroduction;
– Chris playing "devil's advocate" and the return of Chris's "Black Hat";
– Colorado's proposed reintroduction timeline/release schedule; and
– More!
Enjoy!
