You folks out west probably know all about wild elk invading towns, but for us back east this is wild to see. YouTube - Showdown In Elk Town - Human Planet, Cities, Preview - BBC One
Besides posing a danger to humans, it looks like they cause some property damage. |

My family ate three whitetail deer last year. I bet your average elk will go as far as three deer.

Do folks worship elk in CO?
Or they just like the crappy canada geese all over the town I live in? |

i've been to wyoming several times and its pretty much like this.. more so with the mule deer than the elk, but pheasants and turkeys get in on the act too.. they just go about there business whether its on the lawn of the library or up in the mountains.
herds of antilope in amongst the cows and deer standing at the gas station. |

|  | no really, smokemeth&hailsatan | | Join Date: Dec 2005 Location: Pueblo, CO | | | Ah Estes Park. Home of the Stanley Hotel, longs peak in the distance, and elk. Lots and lots of elk. Plus stupid tourists and their wacky shenanigans. Been their many times, and no the locals don't worship the elks, they profit on them because tourists see elk in "magic elk town" and buy a lot of elk **** (like toys and shirts and stuff). Its a really cool town, but I really only liked the lake, the scots irish festival, and rocky mountain natl park. |

I suppose the DNR would then come and fine the snot out of you and take away your car, freezer, gun, right arm, etc. |

Come take pics and see how close you can get to our wild elk, up close and personal. Thrills and spills. After wards, we have plenty of souvenir shops available to purchase elk T's, trinkets and what not.
The locals probably install high iron fences or something similar around their garden plots, to keep the critters out.
