And yes, that is an elk in the above photo. One of three that were standing next to the road. But the crazy thing is, there were three or four cars stopped on the shoulder and half a dozen very stupid people standing not more than 15 feet from these elk! Now I'm pretty sure elk are quite peaceful creatures, but those stupid humans were really asking for it, and a small part of me (not saying which part) secretly wished they'd get their fat asses beat by the fella in the above photo.
