In Oregon, we have a lot of these incredible elk. Many winters after the hunting season is over, I've seen and photographed herds of more than 300. During the rest of the year the males stay by themselves or in small groups of other males. They are spectacular to see in the wild. This big boy feels safe and is scratching his own back with one of his antlers. The reference photo I used was given to me by a gifted photographer named Bobbi Sullivan. (Check out B.N. Sullivan, to see more of her photography).
