DNR postpones elk research project in northwest Minnesota

Kicking off the new year in a new job with the Minnesota DNR, Amanda McGraw, the agency’s deer, moose, and elk scientist, has settled into a role that combines some of her greatest interests into a single job.
“It allows me to continue pursuing those passions for researching our large ungulate species like moose and deer and elk within the state. That’s what made it a once in a lifetime for me,” McGraw said.
This month, McGraw and her team had planned to begin collaring elk in the northwestern corner of Minnesota to gather more data on the herd’s population dynamics. However, that research project will be delayed from starting until next winter – 2025-26.
