Craig Schnebly feeds hay to elk in Joe Watt Canyon on the L.T. Murray Wildlife Area south of Thorp, Wash. Tuesday, Feb. 11, 2014. Elk feeding started at Joe Watt and nearby Robinson Canyon Feb. 1, the latest feeding has started for elk since he's been doing it for the last 27 years, says Schnebly, who works for the Washington state Department of Fish and Wildlife. Elk are reluctant to come to the feeding area during years of low snowfall such as has occurred this year, says Schnebly. The elk are fed to discourage them from migrating to nearby Timothy hay stacks and hayfields and damaging those areas. (AP Photo/Yakima Herald-Republic, Gordon King)
