Predatory Bears A Sign of Elk Habitat Decline
Idaho bears are rising as elk herds shrink, a trend linked to conifer encroachment and habitat loss. The Idaho Department of Fish and Game reports elk declines since the 1950s, with 44 percent drop on the north side of Unit 12 and 19 percent on the south, plus further losses near the Lochsa River. Bear predation on elk calves is rising, prompting bear hunting extensions and extra tags in Units 10 12 and 16 to reduce bear numbers while elk calf survival studies continue.
