1. Pick a spot in the VID and report what you see/hear. Please identify the timeframe, i.e., 1:04 thru 1:12 and tell us what you see and/or hear. What do you feel is happening in that particular activity, vocalization, etc.
2. Respond to somebody's observation/analysis with an agree, don't agree, and perhaps some follow on comments if you'd like.

I'll start.
2:03 - 2:44. Satellite bull flies in from right side of meadow to try and hook some cows as the two large bulls finish their battle in the river. Big gimpy comes unglued and charges towards satellite bull screaming obsenities at the young bull to move on. Satellite bull throws out a few popping grunts to try and keep the cow's attention.
Agree? Disagree? Anything you wish to add to this analysis? Thanks for playing along. RJ

I'd like to add that the young, dumb, love sick raghorn let's out a bugle that catches the big bulls off guard and causes them to disengage. He couldn't help but announce his arrival and unknowingly tipped his hand.

Also I wonder how many elk have drowned fighting in water like that?

OK, do you think old gimpy in the 2:03 - 2:44 clip I mentioned is really screaming at the satellite? He's not, he's screaming at his cows to form back up (calling cows to him bugle).. notice where his physical attention is when he's screaming (looking directly at the cows the satellite is pushing). The herd bull's on-coming presence is enough to let the satellite know he's gonna kick his butt; they've both been here before, possibly for the past several years. The young gun knows what's coming and big nasty isn't talking to him, he's talking to his ladies!
Somebody else pick a spot in the movie and let us know what you think is going on. Let's keep this going for a while and I'll grab another movie to discuss ;)

The thing that amazes me is the smaller bulls disengages right at 1:50, when he hears the bugle from the rag horn. Perhaps it was because the old bull's head was in the water, he doesn't seem to react quickly to the interloper. But he sure lights off when he realizes the dumb young rag horn is back at it again.
As Lojack said, the cows want nothing to do with the young bull, and run towards their Sugar Daddy.

That young "rag horn" probably pushes 315" lol

:yeah: that's my fault, I shouldn't have called him that. He exceeds the raghorn classification.But he sure lights off when he realizes the dumb young rag horn is back at it again.

The Satellite bull is doing all the barking.I disagree, you can clearly see the herd bull bark (watch closely during during the 2nd bark) The satellite bull licks his lips during a bark so I can see why you thought that.

Good catch! I put the video up on the 80" and your right. I never would have seen that on my phone. That big ol bull had me fooled.I can clearly see the Satellite bull bark around 2:14, 2:16.The Satellite bull is doing all the barking.I disagree, you can clearly see the herd bull bark (watch closely during during the 2nd bark) The satellite bull licks his lips during a bark so I can see why you thought that.
