This is the first picture when it is zoomed in. I don’t know if you can get a clear view by double-clicking the image or not, but do you see all of those dots on the hillside about three-quarters of the way up? Those are all elk and this is part of a herd that we estimate to have been about 75 head. These are all bulls and cows, no calves yet, but I’d be willing to bet that nearly all of the cows are pregnant and will give birth in the next month or so.
I have never seen an Elk outside of a zoo. How awesome is this sight. Wow.
It surprised me, even knowing that there are lots of elk in the NBR.
No way. I saw those but you said there were no bison so I wasn’t looking for any animals. Wow!
This was just part of the herd, too.
