Elk

If you're having a hard time relaxing today, I have a solution to you thanks to a new video share by some tourists. It's a mellow moment where a majestic group of elk were spotted swimming across a lake.

Everyone has their own way of finding some peace and quiet. For you, it might be a mellow walk down on the Platte River Trails. For me, it's watching a Montana driver get stopped dead in their tracks by hundreds of elk.

If you look hard enough, there's a very hungry grizzly in this video. Spoiler alert: it's not that hard to find him at all eventually. Another spoiler alert: no elk were harmed in the making of this video.

Before the Jackson Hole area was discovered by celebrities like Harrison Ford and Sandra Bullock, it was ruled by a different species. A video that's over 80 years old shows it was an elk town back in those days.

Wyoming has different traffic issues than other parts of America. Sure, many other places have slowdowns caused by construction. Here our day can come to a cold stop by miles and miles of elk just like it did recently in the western part of our state.

It's not easy being a wolf in Yellowstone. Your pack takes down an elk and thinks it has a quiet dinner only to be interrupted by a very angry grizzly.

As fall turns to winter, numerous animals are leaving their higher-elevation levels to prepare for the oncoming season. Because of this, they are traveling more than usual, and are crossing highways at a higher rate.

Sometimes it's the simple joys in life that you learn to appreciate the most. That's probably why I've found a peculiar joy watching an elk herd frolicking in a pond in Wapiti, Wyoming.

A new video shows what might be a bazillion elk hanging out near Cody. Yes, that might be a slight exaggeration, but you'll have to admit this is a lot of elk.

A Colorado Parks and Wildlife officer recently helped remove a metal can from an elk's hoof.
