Meeting in Jackson this week, Wyoming Game and Fish commissioners heard an update about the elk feedgrounds public engagement process. During Phase I of the effort, Game and Fish and federal partners had hosted public information sharing sessions to provide an overview of the history, objectives of the elk feeding program and the current state of elk feedgrounds.
Following these sessions, the department asked attendees for their input on how they wanted to participate in Phase II of the effort, which will span over the next year. Based on that input, the department intends to continue public education efforts, offering learning opportunities on best-available science of feedgrounds management. Game and Fish then intends to invite all interested stakeholders to help draft the Elk Feedgrounds Management Plan, and the public will have ongoing opportunities to comment throughout the process.
