It’s not uncommon to see elk wandering around in Estes Park, Colorado, this time of year.
It is the fall mating season, after all. And elk are huge creatures that pretty much do what they want, even if it means taking a break on a golf course.
Some elk were seen at Lake Estes Golf Course in Estes Park, Colorado, this week. They mostly wandered around and grazed. They also rested for a bit and of course, used their bugling call to attract a mate. If you’ve heard the sound, there’s no mistaking it.
It’s called the elk rut, and as the Colorado Springs Gazette reports, the season coincides with the arrival of the fall colors, “making it one of the busiest times of year at Rocky Mountain National Park.” People from all over the area will head to Estes Park this month to witness Mother Nature in action.
Elk are frequently seen around downtown Estes Park as well as the golf courses and a walking trail that goes around town.
In this age of selfies, though, wildlife officials recommend people stay at least 75 feet away from the elk.
