On this episode of the East Meets West Hunt podcast, Beau Martonik is joined by Jeremy Banfield, Elk Biologist for the Pennsylvania Game Commission. The PA elk herd is a conservation success story to say the least, and I wanted to hear the history of the elk herd, learn about elk habitat, and their current management plans. In addition, we talk about hunting opportunities for elk in PA, understanding the draw system and the new Elk SMART campaign.
