VIDEO: Incredible video of elk capture in Arizona

Incredible video of the capture of 60 elk in Arizona which will be transported to the Tomblin Wildlife Management Area of Logan County later this month as part of West Virginia’s Elk Reintroduction Program.

The elk were provided by the state of Arizona from areas where the animals had become over populated and needed to be thinned out.

The Go-Pro video is worn by members of the highly skilled capture team while working in the Raymond Wildlife Area east of Flagstaff, Arizona January 23 and 24, 2018.
