I think that the Tule Elk breed in June/July. I say that because there were cows this weekend at FHL that were harvested that had fetuses. The biologists said with all the info they had and studies done that this was the "best" time to have the hunt. I do know that the blacktail deer over there were in the rut. The bucks were running around with no concerns except getting after the does.

I'll have to make some calls to the biologists and ask them what they think. the deer are rutting there.... so I wonder if they are in d5 or why the coast starts earlier I thought temps were the main cause
