At the start of this video shown below, we are in the Estes Park in Colorado. We see a massive bull elk that is in a small pond. There are a few onlookers who have stopped to take a look at this big bull. We see a man and a woman filming from across the way. And close by to this bull elk is an elderly man who is walking away.
Finally, we see all these onlookers turning around and walking away. This was enough to interest the bull to follow suit. It seems particularly interested in this elderly man. He walks up to him and barrels at him, displaying power. He bends his head down and bucks his horns against the man. Smartly, the people don’t engage this elk. Because if it came down to a fight between a man and an elk, the elk we can guarantee would win.
