My girlfriend grew up in a big city and I had her with me a couple years ago in the elk woods. Seeing a six point bull scream in her face at 50 yards got her to fall in love with elk! She loves seeing them and I love hunting them. Thanks RMEF for everything you do for our herds and heritage. I’m waiting to hear a bugle right now
The life of elk near my house: Spring: Grazing up high Summer: bugling like crazy Fall: Hide like ninjas during the hunts Winter: Come down in the middle of the night to destroy my hay stack and fencing without leaving their antlers. Gotta love em, they are still awesome animals. Thanks RMEF!
I live the same dream. Out of 20 bulls, I might get 3 or 4 sheds. The traitors. The feed off my hay stack all winter and run off somewhere else and shed
I love deer species, they are very unique and pretty. I especially love the elk and moose. Im glad the antlers werent confused with horns in this one :)
Haha me too! So sad that you won’t be able to see them in the wild anymore in Colorado😕 grey wolves🙄. This year, I went elk hunting for 9 days and almost everyday we ran into elk. It was the most amazing experience I have ever had. Very humbling.
Our band, the Red Lion Pipe Band, went to a festival at Estes Park, Colo. As the massed bands began playing & marching down the Main Street, the elk were gathered in town. As the bagpipes began, the elk answered from all around to the sounds, especially the high notes!
Alberg, I’m just curious if that’s your same beliefs for my native people of these lands that hunted way before illegal immigrant settlers came to this country?
@Meow Meow obviously most vegans don’t support hunting, but hunting is no where near as bad for animals OR the environment OR people’s health as factory farming is. Trust me, ending hunting is no where near the top of the list on the vegan agenda lol. There are even some vegans who support sustainable hunting
I like that the narrator reminded us that hunters are the greatest conservationists. Nobody really understands what would happen if animals like elk, caribou, whitetail deer and more animals became overpopulated... overpopulation can lead to a great number, a genocidal number of animals dying off. That and we would see these animals appear in strange, dangerous places like Los Angeles Hollywood Boulevard...
@@mbr936 Well maybe the part about animals ending up in big cities but no everything else is accurate anyways..... get out of here vegan.... you’re either a vegan or choose the lives of animals above humans.... either way I have no interest in speaking with you
keep telling yourself that the real predator that is supposed to keep them in check are wolves. but humans have pushed them into near extinction. The notion that hunters are supposed to keep the population down is total bs. Im defintiley not opposed to hunting for food but lets be real.
I dont hate hunters and i absolutely understand the need for hunting not just in a conservation way but in a cultural way and id totally hunt myself but i dont think i could bring myself to kill a deer, they are my favorite animals second to giraffe, i know you dont hate them and you appreciate probably more than i do but i dont have the heart to do it, i think the city that has grown around me over the past few years has gotten to me lol
Enjoy it while you can! You might not see anything at all after they release the wolves. I just got my first elk this year! Most amazing experience ever.
I encourage everybody that watch join the Elk Foundation is a good organization to help out and help preserve hunting and elk habitat cross this country
Wish you would explain the transitions of elk between summer range, to peak rut phase, to post rut phase. When we see rubs, we know that was most likely their summer range. Where are the bulls in september, then october?
Hello, here is some more information on elk and elk our - outdoorclass.com/the-journal/deciphering-the-elk-calendar-with-randy-newberg/ OutdoorClass' University of Elk Hunting with Corey Jacobsen also goes over all this information and more - outdoorclass.com/instructors/university-of-elk-hunting/
I've always wondered about the claim that calves and fawns are without scent given that so much of the human microbiome is the result of passing through our mother's birth canal - how do calves and fawns do the same and escape the bacteria that are responsible for our microbiome produced scent? Maybe it's inactive scent glands - so not without scent completely; just without as much.
And then fish and game stood 60,000,000.00 dollars from the Pittman and Roberson act and reenterduced the wolf that are destroying the elk herds along with the moose and deer.
Kentucky has the largest elk herd east of the Mississippi River - numbering approximately 13,000. More details here: fw.ky.gov/Hunt/Pages/ElkInKentucky.aspx
But imagine if they helped with, but also didn’t hunt them- imagine how great that would be! But hunters only help the elk because it benefits their hobby
@@brendanmorin9935 you’re speaking on a subject you obviously don’t understand. I mean this in the kindest way. Please start doing some research on why animals are hunted and then comment.
That's awesome man, I was just up hunting with a buddy and he got a shot on a nice 6x6 over water and I got it all on film, sadly we never found the bull
Lucifer that’s unfortunate man cool you’re buddy got a chance at a bull tho I use a mark V Weatherby in 30-378 and the elk dropped in one shot I use the 30-378 for everything to be honest I don’t think I’ve ever had to put more than 2 shots into something man have good day
Great video but I’ll never understand why loud music is always inserted into these types of videos. I’m not a millennial so I watch for information not stimulation. I guess I got old😁. But thanks for the great video. God bless America and God bless President Trump! MAGA🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸!!! TRUMP 2020🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Not quite right about the weight. Roosevelt or Olympic males on the west coast can weigh 1200 lbs as can some male elk in Alaska. Some mature bulls from Raspberry Island (Alaska) have weighed nearly 1300 lb.
Even for Rocky Mountain elk the weights given are not representative of some actuals. I harvested a cow in CO that had a hanging weight of 582lbs, so it was over 200 lbs heavier on the hoof than the max stated in the video.
@@richardsmith6610 What do you think the average CO cow and bull would be? I'm in NM and is it similar here I wonder. Interesting stories and relevant input!
@@nmarbletoe8210 In my experience average Rocky Mountian branch bulls would be in the range of 500-600lbs, and average mature cows in the range of 350-450 (live weight). The cow I mentioned in my post was a little heavier than my largest 6x bull, so it was a rare example of an exceptionally huge mature lead cow (took 6 loads to pack it out solo). I would have had a hard time believing a weight of a cow like that had I not been the hunter who had to quarter it and pack it out.
When Was this produced ? These population numbers may have been correct yrs ago but not currently ! There is a rapid decline in the numbers of all of the ungulate population & ranchers livestock are being harassed also!!
@@FalconFastest123 Mintz is in his condo in New Jersey, methinks. he's cross contaminating all kinds of infor. in his posts. I'm not wasting too much time on him. Na Noo, Na noo........outer space awaits.
Alberg I know what rut means. also you’re wrong. leaving the wild unattended would be alright if we hadn’t made the past mistake of killing of most the elk/deer’s natural predators. if they are not hunted then they will overpopulate due to having no natural predators
Alberg I wasn’t suggesting a solution. They’re really is no need for a solution because hunting control their population well enough to keep the species thriving. It also provides opportunities for humans to become closer to nature and how to respect the kill. Hunting also can provide someone with a food source (though it would be cheaper to buy meat) and it is so much fun to be in the woods and experience nature. Hunting is not humans taking advantage of nature and game, hunting is humans embracing and become one with it. We are being another part of the ecosystem and enjoying nature in a way no one else can experience. Now tell me, is hunting really ruining elk populations or is it just you complaining because you think it’s mean.
Alberg the only thing wrong with their habitats is the lack of predation. The only solution to that is to replace the predators. Humans replace wolves and bears that were chased out of that area long ago. The humans are the predators now. Their is no way to get the predators back, other than to ship them in like cargo. It can’t happen, even if the predators are protected and we are allowing them to thrive. There is no way the elk will have a natural predator (maybe in the future) in soon enough time to control there population and keep them from over populating
Alberg I’m making the assumption you don’t hunt. That means you don’t spend hundreds a year on licenses and tags. All that money I spend goes towards wildlife conservation because I am paying that money to the state. Now since you don’t hunt, what money do you contribute to wildlife conservation. I don’t see you pitching in any money, building forests, or keeping wildlife at bay. Lead by example
Alberg So if this loving of predators is possible it would cost way more in whatever is necessary to move them than it would be to have people pay the state to be predators. It is unrealistic to ask a government to pay thousands to move predators when they can be given money for conservation and have a natural predator through hunting
Human encroachment and lack of habitat is the biggest threat to wildlife now. So look in a mirror if you would like someone to blame as you're just as culpable as anyone else. Wildlife management through hunting and the dollars provided by it are the reason wildlife populations continue to thrive despite loss of habitat.
Provided that almost the entirety of funding is generated through hunter dollars, and the majority of conservation work is done by hunter-funded groups - Hunting IS Conservation.
Cass Hickman She needs to look up the definition of “conservation”!!! “Preservation” is total NON use of resources, but “CONSERVATION” is WISE use of resources!!! Many uninformed city dwellers often get their terms mixed up!!! It’s bcuz they’ve never experienced a high country trip, either for hunting or just to get informed!!!!!

Wolves are essential to the ecosystem, like hunters are.
For such a huge beast it sure has a girly high pitched bugle. Carries further but just comical.
