Elk Run

A wildlife biologist says elk and bison could eat up remaining forage on the south end of the National Elk Refuge in a matter of weeks. Refuge biologist Eric Cole says 6,000 elk and 650 bison have migrated there, and at the current rate, officials could have to begin supplemental feeding with alfalfa pellets in early January. Last year, the migration didn't happen until January.
