Bull Elk Attack on Man in Estes Park Colorado

Uploaded: April 03, 2009

Description

I was taking photos of elk in Estes Park, Colorado when I heard this biker yelling for help. There were several other people watching, but I stopped taking photos to help this person. The elk actually went after me, the man on the bike threw it at the elk and the man fell down. I went over to help the man, the elk came after me, and I ran behind a big bush, I yelled at the man to get his bike and he did and left. The elk then left, this happened during the rut, when the elk are territorial.

Exif: Model: HP Scanjet 4800
