same comparison technique is useful for the number of hunters. in 2015, wyoming units 66 and 103 both had 548 total elk hunters (table 2).
unit 66 is about 1,924 square miles and unit 103 is 243 square miles, so unit 66 had only 0.28 hunters/sq. mi. (or 2,247 acres per hunter) and unit 103 had 2.26 hunters/sq.mi. (284 acres per hunter).
more on the number of acres per hunter later when cover hunting effort, because the average elk hunter does not hunt most days.
as i mentioned in an earlier post, each state has a wide range in the numbers of hunters and elk harvested in various units. as example, table 1
