[QUOTE="Lucky_P, post: 720496, member: 12607"] jasrnch The elk reintroduced into the Eastern US were all tested for brucellosis and TB before they left whatever facility they'd been gathered on. I know the initial importation into LBL here in KY, back in '95, came from Elk Island in Alberta CA, but the ones they turned loose over in the mountains of eastern KY were from somewhere out in the western US - but all were test-negative for brucellosis & skin-test negative for TB. But, they did bring Echinococcus granulosus(hydatid cyst tapeworm) in with them - a parasite that we didn't have here, at least in western KY, before the elk reintroduction. [/QUOTE]
