Wind in my hair, Sun on my face, I gazed at the wide open spaces, And I was at home.

Wonder if those guys know rutting elk have been known to decorate their antlers with human entrails. Never mind that one must be cute and fuzzy.

Gives real elk a bad name.
Money can't buy you happiness, but it can buy you a hunting license and that's pretty close.

Had a Yellowstone worker tell me that they had more people injured by rutting elk than bison or moose combined.
I know one came splashing across the river just west of Norris meadows and ran us up a tree several years ago.

that's a good way to get eviscerated.

One time I was camped at Norris and a yearling was running wildly around...and people were letting their kids run after it!
I thought about saying something but you really can't fix stupid.

It's too bad neither of them was ready to take the shot. Maybe in Yellowstone, self-defense is the way you get a good bull.

See? These two guys were able to stalk withing bow range of this little bull. LITTLE bull? The shoulders are nearly as high as the man's. When the elk is fully up on the pavement, he's going to look a lot taller. I wouldn't call him little at all.
