The story was quickly proved to be bs as shed was posting data on the hunts at the time. If your story is TRUE hopefully they throw the book at them.
R3illy last year the discussion on the Wainwright hunt was the number of moose taken and more specifically a number shot by 1 FN individual.

As one other poster noted the 60 elk would have been Suffield. I was down there for the hunt after a significant number of animals were taken by a group from Sk.

Moose are taking a beating on the base and now that elk are known to be harvestable, I expect that the number of non-drawn hunters will continue to increase. Putting in for a draw a person has to face this reality and also look at the harvest numbers and realize that the true success rate for hunters through the draw will be lower. Just how it is.
