[QUOTE="happylilcuss, post: 307871, member: 11618"] Here is an interesting twist to the HF story. Oregon has an expieremental area that is 40 square miles of HF and regulated by the ODFW and an open draw unit for hunting, It does have a buffer zone where your not allowed to hunt within a 1/4 mile of the fence. [url=http://www.fs.fed.us/pnw/starkey/]Welcome to the Starkey Project[/url] Now I have never hunted inside the fence however we do hunt on the side of the fence. I have hunted the area since before the fence went up and can say it did masivley change the way the elk move and migrate. Early on the elk would bunch up against the fence and you could count on seeing a sizeable heard running down the fenceline every year. Now you barely ever see elk around the fence. Early on the elk would run toward the fence when jumped and now they act like its a natural barrier and just live with it. They rarely live near the fence during hunting season, I just thought it was interesting and had to do with the HF subject. [/QUOTE]
