I helped with both the Leroy and Cokeville (Nugget Canyon) mortality counts. It was a very sad sight to see the devastation that winter took upon our deer herds especially in the Leroy area.
The poor habitat conditions in the Leroy and Cokeville area cannot be blamed on the Oil and Gas industry though. There has been absolutely zero development in those two areas in the last 20 years.
