Thanks. They’re on their way down here then. We find quite a few hooves after the elk pass through here, and the hooves are from formerly healthy elk (healthy hide, legbones, juvenile and mature, etc.). A few moose, BTW, have made it into northern Colorado. ...exceedingly strange looking (for around here), sometimes inquisitive creatures.
We have the smallest Shira’s moose around Pocatello. The enjoy playing in lawn and farm field sprinklers.
That’s pretty funny about the sprinklers. Have a look at the photo with the moose in it near the bottom of the page. ...not far from here.

BTW, george76, a little off topic, but a few people have spotted moose in Summit County (between Breck, Silverthorne, and around there). They’ll probably follow the water down through the Middle Fork of the South Platte before long, IMO.
There must be a lot of sick and weak cattle there, because we all know that wolves only selectively kill and eat sick animals. /s
The ranching done on "public" lands (there being no Constitutional authorization for the Federal government to own land in bulk) is done in conjunction with payment of a fee.
The rancher's property rights do not end just because they use "public" lands .
An extension of your position is that if you are camping on public lands, I am free to come in the night and take posession of your vehicle - you are camping on public lands; your rights are nil.
Lock up yer antifreeze - wolves will drink it!
Ya don’t want yer engine freeze, do ya?.
The correct term is “killing frenzy”, and wolves are well known for this behavior.
Thanks!
