Abstract:

Because of the extent and cost of Cervus elaphus nelsoni damage in Colorado, the authors tested the repellency of MGK Big Game Repellent (BGR), chicken eggs, coyote Canis latrans urine, Hinder, Hot Sauce Animal Repellent, Ro.pel and thiram on tame cow elk. At the concentrations used, coyote urine and BGR performed better than the other repellents for deterring elk from feeding on cubed alfalfa hay.
