Big Tub Report post Posted April 8, 2012 I would say 29% so that you would be closer than you know-it-all son! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
123456 Report post Posted April 8, 2012 30% would be my guess, maybe a little less. But I would envoke the price is right rules and if you overbid, you lose. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thegrayghost Report post Posted April 9, 2012 We were at the Phoenix Zoo this weekend taking the grandkids for a visit to see the animals. We began to discuss why there were no elk in the Arizona exhibit. Then one of my sons made the comment that there were elk in 50% of Arizona so why did we need an exhibit at the zoo. I quickly said absolutely not, maybe 10% of the state had elk in it at any given time. So, if you were to take the state of Arizona and give elk a percentage areas where they are found. What would you give as a percentage? Arizona has approximately 114,000 square miles, so my estimate would claim that approximately 14,000 square miles of Arizona a person could find elk. Course my estimate was off the top of my head in an effort to dis-credit my son on his profound statement about there being elk in 50% of the state. Just a fun question to see what you think would be a good percentage given to the area covered by our elk herds here in Arizona. I am sure G&F has the answer to this question. Well if you count all the elk around the state in everyone's house..... I'm thinking more like 80-90% hahahahaha Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
