Elk

This herd of elk was moving accross a clearing in a forest in northeastern Washington. I will not say where.

It is always a puzzle to me that some of us seeing this picture would presume we should get out 30-06's or our 30-30's or 32 Specials and try to kill one of these beautiful creatures. We are not very far away from the primative, I suppose. And, that is why we have war. As things escalate, we may no longer have a civilization. Maybe that is the necessary result of our hubris.
