Where do Elk go in the winter? (Wildlife Migration)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 8 сен 2024
- Elk live in some rugged country a lot of the year. When winter sets in, many herds migrate long distances to escape deep snow and find suitable habitat.
Marcus Hockett heads out to check elk winter ranges near Yellowstone National Park, along the way learning the history of how this land was conserved.
As humans populate and develop the land, open space that elk need is continually lost. We can learn a lot from our history on how to protect wildlife and landscapes.
Huge thanks to Julie Cunningham, Dean Waltee, Fred King and Randy Newberg for all of the help and knowledge they shared in the making of this video.

Keep up the great work Marcus. This was very enjoyable. I’d love to see more wildlife and conservation themed videos.
Good to hear. We have more in the works!
I like this, as someone who is plotting emigrating to the US when I am done with Uni and becoming a hunter when I do this sort of mini-doc is of great interest.
Thank you so much for posting this video. The information is great and highlights a lot of things. Thanks again and keep up the good work.
Marcus excellent video on a very important subject. You are correct in we should be thankful for people that had the foresight to conserve that land. You can keep these videos coming!
Great content Marcus! I think most hunters already “get it”. We need to make sure the non hunting public understands how important it is to preserve wild places, not just for hunting, but for everyone. The biggest threat to all the wild creatures we love is not hunting, it’s not wolves. It’s habitat loss and fragmentation. (As a side note, with the fragmented landscape we already have, there is no room for an apex predator like wolves. But that’s a topic for another time.)
Awesome video! My first cow elk and then first bull were both taken on two of those migration routes - both headed to WMAs and land opened up to the public by RMEF. 🤘
Thanks for watching Jared!
@@Fresh_Tracks well I heard most of Big Sky ski area was developed in the last 20 years, how much wildlife was displaced for rich east coasters trophy mansions that are unoccupied most of the year?
Yes please do more I will share them. Everyone should. These are great for people to understand what hunter, or just someone who loves the outdoors OUTDOORSMAN are about.
Great Job Marcus. I thoroughly enjoy seeing all the elk in these valleys on my winter travels.
Terrific marcus. Very important topic. Please do another about migration corridors and how to protect them. You guys are really coming into your own!
Love this video!
Very important and interesting to know how our resources are being managed.
Thank you :)
As a 'greenie' (Colorado license plates), I'm a bit familiar with the Gallatin Gateway and Paradise Valley...two of my favorite places. This documentary episode was very enjoyable to view. Great content, well researched, well photographed and well produced. I look forward to more of this type of product. Thanks Marcus & crew. Well done.
Thanks. Glad to see people are enjoying it!
Great video Marcus, as a RMEF life member from Wyoming it is always good to see where some of the money goes. Have a great day.
Great information. Thank you for posting.
Really well done Marcus. Great video
Appreciate the sharing and distribution of valuable knowledge. Keep on keeping on.
Nice video! I worked for FWP at Wall Creek in the summer of 2017 and did some work on all the game ranges in R3. It was a great job in some neat places. I had to laugh when I saw the footage of the sign at Wall creek because I painted it!
Thanks for putting this very informative video together. Love to see more about conservation efforts tied to better habitat for our big game species.
Great video! We're in a major battle in MO right now over Conservation and public lands. Lots of people lacking the vision and foresight earlier generations had.
Great video guys!!
Great info, thank you for sharing!! I appreciate you all taking the time to discuss conservation and protecting wild places and things. A large portion of our charitable donations go towards conservation groups you all have introduced us to and we’re proud supporters!!!
Great video! Maybe do this in the other states you normally hunt
The hunt, the food, the adventure, the bonding and now the history.
I know conservation history and current events has been brought up in many episodes and podcasts before, but a dedicated mini-doc definitely wraps up the package of content you all deliver quite well and will most certainly reach out to a larger audience.
Look forward to seeing more!
It's always a good thing to spread conservation information. I enjoy these kinds of videos and Marcus narrates very well. Probably had a good teacher?
Very good video! Love to see the conservation. I have always been about public land, and you and Randy have been great champions of our public resources. Any video that can exemplify the importance of public land is a very valuable tool, and you use it well. Keep up the great work.
Awesome video. Muledeer migration route conservation for another video?
Thank you So Awesome, Please keep us up to date So important and Majestic
Very cool video. Can't wait for more of them.
This is great information. Thanks and keep them coming!
Love it. Short, to the point, important stuff.
Thanks for watching.
Great informative video
Good stuff Marcus
I worked one spring outside Ennis Mt on the Madison. That spring, I observed a herd with around 500 head migrate back into the mountains. Found several sheds in the hay meadows there. Seen large herds in other areas as well.
Very interesting!! I like it
Well said and very informative. Thanks!
Loved the video and would like to see more of these. Great job! 👍
Well done Marcus keep them coming......
we liked it!!! Do more.
Got to get my sh*t together and become an RMEF member! Thanks for putting this together, really inspiring.
I really enjoyed this. Content like this and the conservation materials that Randy and you guys produce is one of the biggest reasons I went back to school to get into Wildlife Biology and work in the conservation field. Love this stuff! Keep it coming!
Awesome video, keep them coming!
Great content Marcus. Thank you and Randy and your whole crew for educating all of us who love
elk about their habitat needs and the work of game departments and conservation organizations like RMEF to protect them.
Great video. Very informative. Keep these coming.
Great info, and delivery. Anything like this is great especially if it promotes public land in whatever way.
Absolutely we like it!
Perfect! Great information. Well done.
Thumbs up on mini-docs! For sure.
Great information Marcus keep it coming!!
Randy Please do a podcast on just winter migration, how and when it happens, the ethics (vehicles driving roads to jump out and shoot)behind it , do they move at night , does it stop with snow melting , etc. Thanks !!
That was very informative and I enjoyed it very much! Way to go Marcus and gang for putting this together and sharing. I guess Randy might keep you guys around a little longer... Great job.
Great video Marcus! You Montanan's should be proud of the great conservation work you have done and continue to do!
I like it. Perhaps a series focusing on different elk habitat throughout Montana (and other states).
Great video
Can’t wait to see some beautiful bulls .
Nice work Marcus! Very informative and eye opening on the importance of WMA's. Keep this type of content coming. Do another on wilderness areas and their purpose and history.
Really liked the format and information
Great video Marcus!!
Thanks for the history of how we got here.
This was a great vid keep it up it’s nice to know and let others see that hunters care about conservation of our lands. Keep these coming.
good work and thanks for the information
love your videos keep up the good work
Good stuff Marcus. You did an excellent job of narrating the video. Too often we fire and forget. As sportsmen we need to be educated about the lifecycle of the animals we love to hunt and what we can do to foster greater numbers; or reduce those numbers if need be. Open land conservation is obviously a critical piece of the puzzle. I'd be interested in knowing the impact wolves have on wintering elk. There's talk of reintroducing wolves to Colorado and I'm concerned the impact this would have on our herds. Would I like to see wolves in the wild there? Yes; but what are the second and third order effects?
I would like to see one of the cameramen to access public land with a flight suit in this series. Bonus if paddle out of the Bob Marshall with a vintage purple blue lifejacket.
Awesome info keep these up
Great info Marcus!
An excellent educational film for me living overseas, I learnt a lot, thanks Marcus
very cool!
I have to agree with Jason Tucker.
Great video. Thanks!
Excellent video with interesting information. Nothing happens without people with vision. Thank you for doing it!
Maybe a video on the Starkey Experimental Forest?
Great job Marcus, I really enjoyed the video. More conservation videos from a hunter's perspective would be great!
Marcus!! So good to see you! Awesome information! Being a Wyoming native, I love seeing the different organizations have retained the elk wintering grounds for the Yellowstone herds ( and all others!). I would love seeing you do more platforms like this!
Great job!
Excellent content
Marcus has a future news! I loved it. Give us the same type of video about the history of forced wolf reintroduction.
Keep it up guys
Good job
Good video from Randy’s #1👍
Awesome Marcus! Hey when you take over, do you think you'll be able to still keep Randy on?!!....
Please do a similar series in each Western state on the wildlife areas. RFNP to Estes Park unit 20 migration would be another one or unit 18 Granby in CO
Fred King fwp biologists an old friend of mine. He's an expert on elk.
Hell yeah man
I’m always interested in wildlife conservation. There’s too much open land that’s developed for homes.
Great video, hey are they moving north to got to colder weather and snow go figure! I think they should head to Florida. But They sure do look tasty! I bet they cook up real nice on my smoker!
Very interesting. I would love to see how western states compared to one another with their land and wildlife management WMA's or whatever they're locally called.
Since the wolves have destroyed our elk populations there isn’t much of a migration like there used to be. A lot of the elk are resident herds that have just dmoved down onto the winter ranges.
Great work boys! Which area would be best for shed hunting? I live in Yellowstone county.
All of these WMAs are popular shed hunting spots, but one of the cool things about these lands is that they're closed to all public access until mid May. Shed hunting can put a lot of stress on animals during their most vulnerable time of the year. On May 15 a bunch of people will wait in line for the WMAs to open and it will be a mad race to get to the antlers.
thumbs up
So would you say the wmas are where the elk find them? Or the elk find them where they are?
Great video. Wildlife needs a voice.
Where do broken hearts go to?
Wolves harass these animals? if so can we hunt them there? Grest job Marcos. Excellent work.
Constant wolf pressure is causing elk to severely overgraze the low country of Gardiner Basin (range condition per recent Marlow MSU study for USFS). The elk are low all year round due to the wolf pressure. The same thing is happening at Dome Mountain of Paradise Valley mentioned here and surrounding areas. No native grass (replaced by cheat grass, etc), intense erosion, etc. If you are going to call it "habitat" it better be habitat, not just open space with no grass. Same with conservation - if the habitat is being degraded via elk overgrazing it doesn't deserve to be called conservation. The aesthetic interests of "no development" are not meaningless, and they get people to click on videos, but if the habitat/grass isn't being protected then the whole thing is pointless.
see wyoming migration initiative.
Get rid of the music especially when talking. Must be new guy didnt get memo on editing. Would like to see great places to eat on hunts also showing the different terrain on onyx and then show it on the ground. Also cool places that can stop on way back from hunt if have time cause tagged out like rmef headquarters or mountain man museum in Pinedale. And not this format but Michael fishing back here in ohio, maybe even bring Randy for Erie Walleye
Flori duh
How many animals you killed
Good work!
Great video
I really enjoyed this. Thank you.
