I have an idea that has been biting away at me. We have 2/3 of the Elks that live in the Americans…just missing the Tule Elk. So I came up with a reserve idea that will star the Tule Elk, along side the California Valley Quail.

The reserve is mostly Valley & Chaparral, with some wetlands & ponds mixed in to break up the dry areas. Kind of a Flatter reserve but has a lot of bushes for animals to hide in. In the middle of the reserve is a ghost town that has been abandoned for quite some time.

I took some creative liberties with this idea, such as some animals being protected in California despite being able to be hunted elsewhere. There are 26 species on this map, with over half being classes 1-2.

Species List: New

Tule Elk (Class 7)
Yellow-Bellied Marmot (Class 2)
Striped Skunk (Class 2)
Virginia Opossum (Class 2)
Nutria (Class 2)
North American Porcupine (Class 2)
North American River Otter (Class 2)
Wilson’s Snipe (Class 1)
Golden Pheasant (Class 1)
Sage Grouse (Class 1)
California Valley Quail (Class 1)
Sandhill Crane (Class 1)
Mourning Dove (Class 1)
Desert Cottontail (Class 1)

Returning Species:

Black Bear
Puma
Mule Deer
Bighorn Sheep (Sierra Nevada)
Feral Hog
Pronghorn
Bobcat
Coyote
Grey Fox
Beaver
Common Raccoon
Rio Grande Turkey

I think there's got to be a way where you could do at least two subspecies of Elk, maybe even three. California has Tule, Roosevelt, and Rocky Mountain Elk. Would the Bighorn be Desert Bighorn or Rocky Mountain?

I would prefer it if the Reserve focused on the Tule Elk, since they will be the stars of the ranch

#

and we are at 26 rn, I think anything more would feel a tad bloated

Cali is rather tame on Big game animals, so that's why they are a bit slim on them. But I in return added a lot of class 1 & 2
