Mark, They are not truely "wild" as they are in one big huge pen. One part of the park is for the bison and the other part is for the elk. I don't know what keeps the elk from jumping over the fence or the bison from running through the fence, but there are grates that you drive over at the gates so I assume that is what stops them from walking on out.

I honestly had no idea that there were any wild elk or bison in Missouri. Do you know if they've been reintroduced, or are part of a continuous local population? --mark --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ Eastern Native Tree Society http://www.nativetreesociety.org You are subscribed to the Google Groups "ENTSTrees" group.
