Interesting Elk Hunting Information:
- There are very few species as majestic-looking as a North American Rocky Mountain Bull Elk.
- Elk have a pair of ivory teeth that most hunters will save as a memento of their hunt.
- Bulls shed and grow a new set of antlers every year. Elk antlers can grow up to an inch a day and can weigh over 40 pounds.
- Elk are among the most vocal communicating danger quickly and identifying each other by sound with high-pitched squeals coming from calves, chirps and misc squeals for general conversation and barks warning of danger.
- During the rut, bulls bugle advertising his fitness to cows, warning other bulls to stay away or announcing his readiness to fight. They will also rub trees, shrubs and the ground with their antlers to attract cows and intimidate other bulls.
