Bull elk attacks truck in Estes Park

[@KFrost-fx7dt]

Gotta love the road rage when there's a dangerous animal stopping traffic and attacking cars.

[@doublen7737]

Yeah, Ridiculous.

[@michaelbauers8800]

Yeah, saw that. *sigh*

[@Jaredmk]

I know right

[@HolysMoly]

the truck had literally no reason to stop other than to look at the elk, not like it was in his way

[@tortepasti2]

@@HolysMoly Yeah, because you obviously can assess what an elk does next..

[@3419386]

The elk saw its reflection in the truck and admires itself. No attack

Very pathetic click bait

[@JMarieCAlove]

When an animal sees their reflection, they actually think it’s another animal and they start to attack.

[@65firered]

​@@JMarieCAlove some can understand it's a reflection but I don't know if that applies elk.

[@Ljbuddy12]

Wow that is just incredible to see! That elk and his antlers are huge next to that full size truck!

The Elk seemed satisfied after winning the match and chasing away the car

He chased away a lot of vehicles. Common sense tells you to leave as quickly as you can. I know from personal experience what a deer can do to a car, and an elk would be just as bad or worse.

[@wemcal]

@@RaidenAlo nodding for help

[@randygreen007]

There’s actually a longer version of this video where it shows this buck was only trying to get the attention of someone so they could help the herd. Apparently the herd had become stuck in a marsh nearby and the buck actually led several people to them. They roped and dragged them out to safety. It’s one of those rare instances where animals come to humans for help.

[@dillpixel8357]

Wow, this is an understatement but those animals are HUGE!!!

[@rdobeski6792]

So are the antlers!

[@krissifadwa]

if you think elks are huge, you should see mooses. they're like elks, but an evolved version of an elk. they stand at between 6'5" to 6'7" tall.

[@timschlewitz3468]

​@@krissifadwahunting

[@theprophet9429]

Just watched a similar video on a moose. It must’ve been way over six foot. I had no idea they were so big. And, the antlers in this clip. Astonishing.

[@Ispeakthetruthify]

@@krissifadwa They get even larger than that. The largest of the moose, can be over 7'0" tall at the shoulder.

[@Pgr-pt5ep]

Gorgeous looking fella with some mighty fine antlers.

[@fgdj2000]

I saw a different video where someone noticed that same elk apparently was calling for help. He followed it and a cup (?) was stuck in a ditch. But these days you really can't be sure anymore what part of the video is real and what someone edited and narrated and made up.

[@evanstauffer4470]

Well, in the other video a motorist got out of his vehicle and followed the elk to where there were three elk trapped in quicksand (incorrectly called "mud"), one of which dies before our eyes. It would seem difficult to fake that unless the faker just happened to have a video of three elk trapped in quicksand laying around. The elk in both videos is not "attacking" anything; its behavior seems to indicate it is trying to get attention more than anything else.

[@mikepersico328]

That is one impressive bull !!! He definitely is king of that hill and not afraid of much !!!!

lol I too saw that story, and made a quick to find this video. so the dude stitched many videos together to craft a heartwarming story. the elks stuck in the mud seemed to be found by some humans who stumbled on them. Yet I've seen some uncut videos of animals seemingly asking for help.

[@shrujanamsyama9940]

@@ZouUuu Elks and deer never ask for help. They are extremely stupid and have no sense of reasoning. They randomly run in front of vehicles, randomly flee from people and so on. More intelligent animals like canines, elephants, birds, felines etc can ask for help. But never deers

It wasn’t reckless for the cars to go around. They did it in a safe manner. But it was reckless for this truck to just sit there blocking the road. There is no need to stop when the elk is on the side of the vehicle. They could have kept going and the elk would eventually move off the road.
