Did You Hear This One… An Elk Walks Into A Bar….
February 25, 2009
Well not exactly a joke but extremely odd that this elk is running around Eagle County Colorado with a bar stool stuck on her neck.
Wildlife officers are aware of the elk’s problem, but haven’t been able to get close enough to tranquilize the elk and remove the extra headgear.
“It is not usual to have this happen to a cow elk,” DOW officer Randy Hampton said. “With bull elk, we run to that situation commonly where they wiill get stuff tangled up in their antlers.”
While the bar stool does not appear to be hurting the elk in any way it can’t be too comfortable. Hopefully they’ll be able to capture and free her from the stool or she gets free on her own.
Moose Droppings is a place that chronicles my journey, I’ll explore new places and ideas I’ll learn new things and I’ll teach the things I’ve learned to others. Join me on the adventure and hopefully it will help you in your outdoor endeavors.
