Not if one lives on the Oregon Coast! They grace us with their presence in Gearhart OR, passing through our backyard and sometimes hanging out to mow our lawn 🤗
It looks like several were frolicking as they first went out onto the beach (a couple of bucks crow-hopping starting at 1:42).

Elk are bulls and cows by gender, and a herd like this always has a lead cow calling the shots. She’s the matriarch of the herd, and where she goes the rest follow...
This Cannon Beach herd on the Oregon coast is an anomaly. Elk are normally a reclusive animal, preferring wild and rugged terrain where humans won’t bother them. They’re smart, tough animals to hunt. But I’m an old man, and this herd around Cannon Beach has been there for as long as I can remember. They have habitat they like that is close to the beach and they’ve learned to cohabitate with and tolerate the local human population. And for whatever reason, they love to get out and romp on the beach, often in the surf. Years ago I was there and went down early one morning for a walk on the beach. This herd came romping along in the surf, passed within yards of me and paid me no mind whatsoever. One of my favorite memories; I think of it often. For tourists that are lucky enough to see them, I’m sure it’s an experience they will never forget...
@@larrybeavens7580 That must have been something awesome walking on the beach when the elk came by, I can visualize that happening in my head. Thanks for the image.
@@waterbug85 It was a magical moment, for sure. It was very early; I was the only one on the beach that I could see. I saw them coming from quite a ways off, so I just stood perfectly still and watched in awe as they thundered by me. They were in the surf, and I was close enough that they splashed water on me as they went by. There are some things in life you never forget, and for me that moment is near the top of the list.
I spent a long time sailing on a very basic yacht round the world and I think our instincts come back if we remove electricity and other modern stimuli from our lives. If all you have is a desert and sandstone you will be a champion at pyramids I suspect.
@@George.Andrews. Heh, I also believe what you've pointed out to be correct, up to a point. I mean, a surfer on a surfboard, zooming down the front of a huge wave, (which is what I currently see in my suggestions) has a direct connection with the nature of that wave, and Shirley various instincts come into play. But like your sailing skills and knowledge of the weather and water, it brings you personally closer to nature than the same location would likely do for Miss Higglestone at the office.
Must have been unexpected for the people.. Glad I saw it on my. feed. I would liked to have seen it in person. Animals have amazing abilities and I give them respect for that
being in wyoming elk do weird things that just tip top of my list of weird elk. being by the ocean tho they know where why what . and leave us 2 leggers scratchin our brain buckets =} i wish i was in Brookings right now...
We live in Gearhart too and Elks grace us with their presence passing through our backyard and at times even hanging out to mow our lawn! Have they stop going into yours?
Les Wapiti sont natifs de la région et donc ils se promènent partout! On vit juste au Nord de Cannon Beach sur la Côte et ils viennent nous rendre visite en traversant dans notre cour arrière et parfois même tonde notre notre gazon 🤗
😡They were lost & confused! The elder Elk was showing the young Elks the lay of the land. The last time they came through their territory, the structures built by humans weren’t there!😡
This is actually not true, these Elk are a resident herd that migrates through this area all the time and these hotels are by no means new, they are not lost they are exactly where they mean to be. The elk are respected and valued in these communities as a resource and species to respect
Nah...They're just roaming. We live just North of Cannon Beach and we see them all over the place, even in our backyard mowing our lawn for free, he he! It's all in their instinctive natural ways...
How beautiful seeing the herd of Elk! Now that’s a once in a lifetime event!

You see them often out that way. What is unique is th beach and sea
They instinctively knew to cross NOW...I've been to Cannon Beach, truly a magical place, just beautiful !
God created everything to be insink with each other
Did you see them bucking? And the little one turning and ran toward it for a sec... just like kids do. Lol. They like the beach.
Talk about timing! I spent Summers on the Oregon Coast and know that area; pretty exciting to see the Elk herds.
Wow! I think I heard the first one say "Its now or never!"
Just like a surfer would do paddle out between sets ! See how they watched and waited for the right time? Elkgroms !
That one pausing had me thinking he may turn back. The scamper to catch up was well timed...
You can see that rip tide take over the beach after the herd passed! We rode our horses at OR beaches, it was a dream come true.
Thanks for sharing this. And for sharing that they all made it safely out of there. I never knew they went on the beach.
We lived in warrenton Oregon and saw lots of elk. You can see elk everyday in this area.
One almost turned back. So glad they all made it. Phew, I can breath now 😍
That was beautiful but scary to see...so happy they made it safe 🙏🏽❤️ thanks for sharing ❤️☺️
This is incredible footage!! Excellent job. I'm saving this one.

You could see them leaping and frolicking in the surf. They were having a blast! They probably waited all year for this King Tide.
Nice video...the hotel must see them yearly tho. I don't think it was there first time. Animals learn from previous experiences just like we do
It becomes instinctual over hundreds of years, beware to those who build in their path!!!

That’s one pissed off looking ocean!!
😍 lovely share🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌
oohhh, so glad they made it!!
Glad they made it safely
looked like it was a Doe ( or female) that was leading them, even yelled " lets go" when she took off.

They are thinking 🤔 what to do NEXT
Wow that baby elk made it also.
Nice family of elk.
I would bet that the tide was at it`s lowest possible point. Amazing how they know.
Just because the weather is bad, thy still put in the daily run on the beach.
Animals have all their proper instincts going on, which, I believe, we have lost a lot of. We now rely on "info" so much.

A few inches of surf is not dangerous to these Elk they have lived their entire life on that area.
That was very relaxing to watch
phew, i was so nervous that hydroflask was gonna get swept away!
It’s my favorite Yeti! I would have been devastated! 🤣🤣🤣
Sksksksksksksk
Those elk see humans all the time and thay are not spooked by people with cell phones thay do whatever thay want

Is this at Schooners Cove? We lived in Gearhart, just north of CB for a while. Love king tide season and miss having the Elk in our yard.
Yes! Schooner's Cove.
We live in Gearhart too and Elks grace us with their presence passing through our backyard and at times even hanging out to mow our lawn! Have they stop going into yours?
Sad they were so scared.. We were having King Tides.. They were getting cut off from the land and confused between the high tide and the people
they wernt scared at all they were waiting for the lead cow to go she knows what shes doing this isnt there first rodeo
“Locals” being......... locals ❤️🙂
Front row seat for when a tsunami hits.
sneaker wave too
Is it possible to add the intervention of elk in a HEC-RAS 6.0 hydraulic simulation?
What is the n value for elk? :-)
Elk can swim, but they don’t like moving water.
amazing!
Anyone in Cannon Beach...
Question; why the iratic syrf?
That seems odd to this Oregonian...
King tide 🌊💦🌊
Que font ils au bord de mer ? Au lieu d être dans la forêt ?
Les Wapiti sont natifs de la région et donc ils se promènent partout! On vit juste au Nord de Cannon Beach sur la Côte et ils viennent nous rendre visite en traversant dans notre cour arrière et parfois même tonde notre notre gazon 🤗
does anyone know which hotel is it
Schooner's Inn at Cannon Beach
Is this normal to have the waves slammed on your back door?
😡They were lost & confused! The elder Elk was showing the young Elks the lay of the land. The last time they came through their territory, the structures built by humans weren’t there!😡
This is actually not true, these Elk are a resident herd that migrates through this area all the time and these hotels are by no means new, they are not lost they are exactly where they mean to be. The elk are respected and valued in these communities as a resource and species to respect
I could smell the salty air
what hotel is this?
Which hotel was this filmed at...
Schooner’s Inn.
Nice footage you have,after salt?
TONIGHT's MENU: Fresh, really fresh ELK steaks.
Amazing how the animals in nature everything that God created is in sync with each other
The level of human encroachment, and the consequence ... is sad. A bit of luck, and a bit of instinct were involved I suspect.
“Take me to your leader”, PLEASE?!
elk is some good eats
"Thank you God"
Maybe sensing an event. But that’s weird
❤️ !
?can would an animal drink salty sea water?
Pobres animales el hombre a imbadido su abitad una desgracia.
:28 "Just... go!"
Schooner's Inn
I was Cannon Beach about 5 years ago and there were no elk
The elk roam around the county. If you spent a lot of time there, you would eventually see them.
It’s a bad omen - they are running away from something
Maybe just making their usual migration after grazing out their previous area? 𐂂
@@spiritmatter1553 Yup, you got it!!
Nah...They're just roaming. We live just North of Cannon Beach and we see them all over the place, even in our backyard mowing our lawn for free, he he! It's all in their instinctive natural ways...
The ree ree's be like " this is global warming! That tide isn't normal!"
Maybe they saw coyotes or bear or cougar
Why the hell have these elks shaved butts?
Wrong timing and they would be serving elk meat in the hotel for dinner.
Pre brined
A whole year's supply.
These Animals are no Elks.
They are Roosevelt Elk.
To bad it's not ELK SEASON..
