Elk Have the Right of Way

Elk (wapiti) in Estes Park always have the right of way. They are big, fearless, and not always as gentle as some believe. Bull elk have been known to attack cars with their antlers especially during the rutting season. Cows are highly aggressive when their babies are young. They wander anywhere at any time even on the streets and in the parking lots. I took this photo yesterday through a window not far from the supermarket.
