    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
      @evanstauffer4470 8 месяцев назад +2

      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.

      There’s folks that say to keep your vehicle still if they approach until it moves away. Don’t want to spook it and cause it to jump on your vehicle and hurt you or in front of your vehicle and hurt it.
      Ultimately I think I’d probably just try and get away from it but maybe they were afraid of spooking it and hurting it.

    It wasn’t attacking! It needed help cause there were 4 elks trapped in mud dying. Watch the full story on what really happened.

      Friend it's not a true story. I promise you. I live in the town where this was filmed. Elks usually cross streets like this all the time. It's rut season.

    THE ACTUAL STORY; the elk and his herd were trying to cross mud and most of the other elks got stuck in the river of mud. The elk needed help to get them unstuck. He wasn't attacking the car. He was looking for human help

      the AI voice guy just makes up stories. the clip with the elk in the mud and the one on the road have different lighting, vegetation, climate and different people in it...

    There was no attack! There's a second part of this video. That elk was asking humans for help!!! But no one understood its body motions! The one taking this video for one. The elk went to the highway to ask for help, his heard was stuck in a ditch of mud. You can find the video of the rescue on RUclips. You'll recognize this same truck!!
    We humans are not smart enough to understand when an animal is trying to communicate something to us.. It's really sad😢

    This is part of a longer video all about how the elk WASN'T attacking anyone, he was looking for help because the rest of his herd was stuck in the mud.
