As most of you know, elk are big animals and can inflict a lot of pain (and even death) if they manage to get a hold of a person.
Their aggression even grows during the rut. At this time of the year, it seems nothing is safe — not even people sitting in their vehicles.
You hear a lot about buffalo charging and injuring people in Yellowstone, but not much about elk.
Elk are aggressive, and all wild animals should be respected. This video is just another example of why you should not approach wild animals. Imagine what would have happened if these people had exited their vehicles. After watching this, you might even want to reconsider where you park your car the next time.
Paul Chalfant provides this excellent video, which you need to watch.
