Default Supposed to be a cull?

This whole Suffield thing was managed wrong. I have no problem with Natives at the base but if this was an actual cull, cows would be taken. 400 bull elk is 400 less elk on the base but if 400 cows were taken then the number would of been 800 (pregnant cows). Those 400 cows not shot will calve and add 400 extra elk to the heard.
They could of opened up the bulls next year for everyone. Or they could of auctioned off some bull tags to raise lots of money for wildlife management.
Our government did not plan this out well at all, the way it is being done is just driving a wedge between everyone.
