Spot the wapiti also known as Roosevelt elk!
On that foggy morning last spring, I stood a few metres behind a bull Roosevelt elk that I had followed in thick vegetation. He did not notice my presence until I pressed the shutter button. I have special powers 😉

I sure miss seeing these magnificent Roosevelt elk, almost daily. They used to visit our yard, several times every week, when I lived in Youbou. My brother lives on Cowichan Lake Rd now & I can see the elk when up in Cowichan Valley 🥰
Old growth logging is destroying their mating/birthing/foraging habitats.
Pictured: Two young bucks, foraging by the roadside, in Youbou.

I saw an Elk for the first time slow and up close! Looked like two young bucks. Youbou is famous for having Elk just wandering around town.

Attached: 1 video Welp. I took a 240km detour, 100km on a logging road, around #cameronlakefire to get home to #PortAlberni #BCWildfire but I met two new very tall friends! #CameronBluffs #Elk #RooseveltElk #Youbou
Sign on the side of the road on US Hwy 101 entering Sequim, Washington. The local herd of Roosevelt Elk are fitted with radio collars that activate the flashing lights warning motorists that the Elk are nearby and could cross the highway.
Went scouting today for an upcoming private photo tour and spotted several herds of Roosevelt elk. Yes, several herds, kilometres apart. I am really good at tracking wildlife 👍
