1. Sounds as if the Buck

flattened his tire at a minimum.

[ret5hd]

2. "You wanna go?"

“Sure!…Now youse can’t leave.”

[grandpamike1]

15. One of

The best scenes ever.

3. Let's rumble.....

4. See if that is covered under road hazard warrantee.

5. The key here is when the Elk stomps his forefeet.

It means "too late." I am gonna mess you up.

[montanacowboy]

6. Also started to lower his head

humans are so fucking stupid, they have no idea

11. Correct!

Have deer in my backyard on occasion and I know when they stamp their feet it’s a warning.

16. I don't know bull elk body language, but

key here is when the Elk stomps his forefeet.

I kinda' thought that's what it meant. Just a hunch, LOL.

Now, when a human shuffles or paws their feet like that, it means they're an effing liar.

I told my interpersonal communication class that one day and next week a student spoke up and said he went to hear george bush speak after our class. He said he was standing to the left of the stage and had a straight view to bush, who was shuffling his feet the entire time he spoke.

23. I caught that too

that's why you shouldn't get close to them

[TigressDem]

7. Bull Elk gave him a chance to just pass on by...

Walked backward as he would if a bear was charging at him.

Then the dude looked the Elk in the eyes - direct challenge - and probably nodded his head up when he said "You wanna go?"

8. Yeah, in the side wall.

Needs a new tire. He got off easy.

Should have given him some body work to deal with as well.

I hope it was really fucking cold, and he banged up his hands trying to change the tire.

[sinkingfeeling]

9. Hope the elk wouldn't let the idiot out of the truck for hours.

[2naSalit]

20. That's what I was thinking!

It looked pretty gamey out there. Karma, baby.

[Evolve Dammit]

10. Should have been gored. The stupidity is rampant. Beam me up Scotty. No intelligent life here.

[Marcuse]

12. The better part of valor.

[MontanaMama]

13. The jerk got off easy.

That's not even a big bull. It could have been WAY different.

[2naSalit]

21. No shit!

What cracks me up is that the bull has apparently encountered the creature with tires that puncture! He knew exactly where to strike and he stepped right back. Like somebody above said, I hope that bull kept him trapped in his truck for hours!



It reminds me of several encounters I've had that went quite differently. One night I was traveling through the park, up along Swan Meadow and I encountered one of the biggest bulls I have ever seen in the middle of the road. He was looking at me and I saw his eye in enough time to stop well away from him. I dimmed my lights and sat there until he left, he was magnificent. Glad he wasn't interested in me. It was about 2am and I had no interest in having problems with bears or elk or bison while I was just trying to get home from Chico. I had almost the same experience out on Bruce Meadows in the Frank Church Wildernes RNR back in the early 90s. I was going home after partying with a bunch of outfitters before they hit the river the next morning, I had to get back to town, I think it was some 40 miles, maybe more, but I wasn't concerned about the drive because I had airplane spots on my vehicle and I could see for a good half mile and I saw that bull before I got close. He didn't hang around either but I felt really uncomfortable being stopped even though my car was still running. It just felt creepy.

Wild animals are a lot smarter than people imagine.

[Sky Jewels]

14. Ugh, what an asshole. I'm glad toxic masculinity backfired on Mr. Tough Guy.

I can't stand males like that.

My husband would have said, "Wow, he is magnificent!" and then crept by slowly with all due respect to this beautiful boy who is peacefully hanging out in his own territory.

[hatrack]

17. Mess with the bull (elk), get the horns.

Oh well. At least he didn't get gored.

[2naSalit]

22. I think he's done that before!

He knew exactly where to strike that tire for maximum effect!
