Elk at Soda Lake Feedground
Feeding some 590 elk for the winter
January 24, 2008

Bryon Lozier feeds elk for the Wyoming Game & Fish at the Soda Lake Feedground just north of Pinedale. At this time he is feeding approximately 590 elk. Snow forces the elk to leave the high country to find food. The elk feedgrounds in the county feed more than 6,000 animals each winter.

Elk stay close The elk stay near the feedground during the winter because it makes finding food easy.	Eating hay Feeding elk hay at designated feedgrounds keeps them from moving onto rancher's fields and getting into their haystacks looking for food.	Standing Proud
