    Awesome! I would give just about anything to chase a Bull elk like that during the rut.
     
    Re: Elk Fighting in River - Yellowstone National Park

    The park sure grows some nice bulls
     
    Re: Elk Fighting in River - Yellowstone National Park

    I was watching and just kept thinking please fight in the river! I've seen some videos but never any fighting in water. Cool video man.
     
    Re: Elk Fighting in River - Yellowstone National Park

    Apparently those two did not know who they were messing with. At least the second one was smart enough to walk away before his ass whooping took place. Great video.
     
    Re: Elk Fighting in River - Yellowstone National Park

    Imagine a bar fight, under water! Not a whole lot of breaths were taken by those two during that little skirmish.

    The big boy was hurt and limping before the fight. Watch his right front knee as he's walking up toward those cows.

    Man the old bull just took charge. Nice video
     
    Re: Elk Fighting in River - Yellowstone National Park

    kinda what I thought...

    was thinking others would enjoy seeing it. Not close to the live thing, but still good watching regardless !
     
    Re: Elk Fighting in River - Yellowstone National Park

    Wow - I love to something even close to that some day.

    Scott, If I draw my Wyoming antelope license, I'll be passing through there in mid September. How far is Buffalo from West Yellowstone?
     
    Re: Elk Fighting in River - Yellowstone National Park

    Cool video. Was glad to see the old bull with the limp win.
     
    Re: Elk Fighting in River - Yellowstone National Park

    Thanks for sharing Scott!
     
    Re: Elk Fighting in River - Yellowstone National Park

    So I wonder, how long can a bull hold his breath while fighting...

    When he ran off, it looked more like a panicked run (I just inhaled 3 gallons of cold water and cut throat trout, must breathe), than a defeated subservient bull.
     
    Re: Elk Fighting in River - Yellowstone National Park

    It just goes to show how old age and deviousness can always prevail over youth and exuberance. Notice how the old bull didn't start the fight until the intruder was up to his belly in the water. Caught him in a disadvantage. He just outshouted the second one. Because he had the same tables turned on the old bull that just finished the fight.

    They are some pretty nice bulls, but all three are 6 pt. bulls. You can sure see a difference in rack weight though. The first guys rack was downright skinny. And the second intruder's rack was a good foot smaller than the big boy. Neither of the intruders seem to have much skill in winning though, all they would have to do is keep pushing the harem, knowing the old bull, with his limp, isn't going to keep up. I've seen that happen. When he's all tired from staying up then they come and fight him.
