There were some rumors this had to do with a lion attack. That is certainly not the case. This is an unfortunate accident, and the gentleman's medical condition that led to this.
Certainly it could disturb the animals, but there's nothing illegal occurring.
Land is worth so much now. We're just trying to put some money on the table to give the elk a chance.
They are incredibly popular. The comments we hear from people who get the opportunity to see them have been very positive.
In all likelihood, the reason people saw it and the reason a person was able to snap a picture is because the animal was hurt and hungry. The animals are usually pretty elusive.
It's far, far too early to jump out there and say there are no impacts. The intense oil and gas development just began in the last one to two years. It's impossible to sit back and say anything with certainty.
I think you'll continue to see them, absolutely.
Taking a snapshot of the last few years doesn't really work. There are too many variables. The weather is a tremendous factor. There's been a lot of snow in the high country this year. It certainly wouldn't be fair to industry to say the wells drove them away. And drought - it wouldn't be fair for industry to say populations are going up because of, or despite wells.
