Your chances of seeing an elk would be about 200% greater in the park if they were wild, but being that they are tame you can probably double that statistic, so realistically it would be about 400% greater in the park.

These numbers aren't my opinion (well all except the speculated 400%) they come from estimated numbers given by our government.

I think that you mean 200x , rather than 200%. 200% is only twice as many.
