Today we look at more photos of the elk in Mammoth Hot Springs. It is my understanding that the houses depicted here are the residences of park employees. On this day the streets in this area were closed to foot traffic by the general public because of the presence of elk.
Officials Take The Situation In Mammoth Hot Springs Very Seriously

Bull 6 Bugles-Note Numbered TagUnfortunately, no one will thrill to the sight of this magnificent animal again, but another will take his place, and so the cycle of life continues.

A truly magnificent creature. They seem to stand so tall and proud.
More great photos. You are right, another bull will take his place...but by sharing your photos, people will never forget him.
I must say, no one will ever take the place of Benezette's Fred Jr....I hope he can thrive for many years to come.
You are exactly right, another one will step up and take his role. But wow, you certainly captured how amazing he once was.
Beautiful animals. Nicest photos I have seen today.

These are magnificent.
Way too close for my comfort! But surely gorgeous animals.
Incredible photos of some of the world's most magnificent animals.
Magnificent pictures Willard!
I read your previous post. A sad death indeed but this is a wonderful tribute.
And, thank you for the birthday wishes!
WOW! those are some massive horns.
imagine getting up to that sight?Sandy
What an amazing creature. I read your prior post...what a weird accident. I suppose things like this happen but it sure does seem strange.
I'm sure it must be intimidating but I would love to see these creatures up close
your photos are wonderful
Willard: A neat capture of your favorite animal. I love the last bull shot.
Another nice series images and post. Great shot showing the ear tag. Yep, like you said, another big guy will follow in behind #6. Blue Skies.
Great images. I think the bottom image looks like he is smiling and perhaps singing a tune!!! :) :)
What an awesome bull Willard. The last image shows his size and the size of his antlers incredible.
Magnificent images. It is unfortunate that know that he's no more.
A sad death for such a beautiful creature..thanks for sharing this info..
Willard I failed to mention on your previous post that I am glad you got to meet number 6. He may be the most famous of Yellowstone. Unfortunately I never photographed him like I should have but I spent numerous hours watching and enjoying him.
Wow, I love the last one of him bugling. Wonderful photos--sad that he's gone.
WOW!!! I would just LOVE to see this in person.
It was so sad to hear that this magnificent animal is no more.
You do have some great photos to remember him by.
