Hello Mr Rick; thank you for another great article! You and Mary are one of the luckiest , or fortunate , people to live in such an amazing place. Yellowstone is like an open classroom filled with a myriad of ecosystems and adventures around every corner! Wow !
Well said, Kristina. This is truly a huge open classroom filled with wildlife and wild lands and lots of adventure. We are incredibly lucky to be here.
Great info on the elk and their antlers. They are amazing accessories. I had the pleasure of seeing and holding one of a pair and they are amazingly heavy and unwieldy!
I know what you mean, Barbara. When we hike in Yellowstone, we often come upon "sheds", antlers dropped by elk each year. They are amazingly heavy and cumbersome!
love your work. Thank You so much !
Thanks, Mars, for your support. It encourages me.

Interesting. I wonder how they get enough calcium to build and discard boney body parts.
That's a really good question, Patricia, and one I didn't come across an answer for as I read about antlers.
Nice one, Brother! I actually laughed a couple of times (where I hope you expected that!)!
Hey Brother, I'm glad to bring laughter to anyone, anytime, in this crazy world we live in.
And, lemme tell ya, the chuckles were much appreciated!

Great article. Thanks for your research, comments, and involvement in YNP wildlife, Rick.
Hi Joe. I'm glad you enjoyed the article. I sure love watching elk, both male and female. Don't you?
