Question: What Colorado town is nicknamed the “Elk Hunting Capital of the World?”

Answer: Craig, a northwest Colorado community of about 9,000, is known as the Elk Hunting Capital of the World, a phrase also sometimes applied to Moffat County (of which Craig is the county seat). Two of North America’s largest migratory elk herds are found in the region, making it a premier hunting destination.
