I kept waiting for the part where the photograher loses and eye or gets gored.

Interesting encounter non the less.

Good thing the little guy was being nice.  Guy doing the video must of had some good gear.  That was great!
He asked, Do you ever give a short simple answer?  I replied, "Nope."

This is actually several months old and there's a long thread about it somewhere.  This elk had to be put down, shortly after this video was taken.

at 4:40 he finally decides to cover his head and neck with his arm. but I think he was more interested in protecting his hat at that point. I'm glad he's ok but wow, what'a clown  :bdid:

They ended up killing the elk because it had lost its fear of humans and "became aggressive" when seeking food from them.
