Whitish elk

Anyone ever seem this. Is it just a winter coat shedding.
Maturity is when you have the power to destroy someone who did you wrong but instead you breathe, walk away, and let life take care of them.

Unlike deer when an elk sheds its antlers it they are forced off from the new antler growth.  So elk start growing new antlers immediately.
A bad day out hunting is better than a good day at work!
