Dying Tule elk: Volunteers tote water to increase drinking supply
The historic drought in Marin County continues to affect a rare species of elk. Last weekend, nearly a hundred people carried water to replenish the drinking supply for tule elk at Point Reyes National Seashore that are dying in the drought conditions. Volunteers hiked six miles round trip on Saturday, carrying gallon jugs of water to provide the animals at Tomales Point with more to drink. The water drop was organized in part by TreeSpirit Project, Save The Elk, and In Defense of Animals.
