We have a herd of elk here. They pop up around spring from the surrounding mountains.

I'm still desperately searching for a vet that can neuter Nancy leaving her ovaries.
Through a young man living close to me I met a veterinary nurse. I've just called her and she thinks there's a German vet here in UK that can do this.
She then found the vets where he practices, if he's still there then we have a chance. Fingers 🤞

This is a terrific challenge.
Apparently that veterinary clinic doesn't neuter by the partial operation. The only neutering I have found so far has only the two methods.

The one considered in UK as the BEST is their keyhole surgery, removing ONLY the ovaries and the old method of a complete removal.

The keyhole is the most expensive ( with everything over £1000 plus) and from what I can fathom of neutering the most risky for their future health.

Why on earth has our vets not caught up. Everyone I have spoken too just doesn't have a clue and are completely confused at the very idea

Because of their lack of understanding (or maybe being well aware of the problems that could potentially or likely occur)
These animals have to suffer...Urinary incontinence, bladder stones. Acl injuries. Weight gain, hip displacement plus many will get knee injuries and there's more too many to mention. A vets paradise for on going income

I just do not know what on earth to do for the best. I've called all around the country, even London. No one has ever heard of this obviously a by far a safer method.
