Week #34 Symphonic Elk Bugling

This time of year as the Tule elk enter into the rut, the males become more vocal with their majestic ‘bugling’ filling the valley air. These vocalizations function in attracting potential mates and bringing herd members together. Female elk also vocalize and communicate with their young and fellow herd members. Watch the video on the bottom until the end. It is dark but you can see the elk calf meet and nurse from its calling mother.
