Idaho Fish and Game conservation officers collected evidence at the scene, but are seeking additional information the public.
Officers believe the elk was shot sometime on Oct. 26 or early on Oct. 27. The elk was killed along the sixth and seventh fairways of the golf course, either from Warm Springs Road or from one of the cabins along Rainbow Ridge Road.
“Given where this occurred, it’s likely that someone saw or heard something,” said Corey Taylor, senior conservation officer.
