Two Bull Elk Getting Tied together in Montana

[bullride21]

Superpogigeniusman is a fucking idiot and a liar!

[Embernie101]

good job guys. did the other one ever get up and run off though?

[swimmer4lifeist]

What happened to the other bull in the river?

[Elle7491]

I just feel sad how people go for the trophies and don't consider other creatures. In England we had The Exmoor Emperor which was an unusually large red deer. The largest land animal in the whole of the British Isles. Then one day someone just shot him for his antlers :( Was very sad. What if he wasn't able to pass on his genes to the next generation?

[Mr1badxj]

if u guys saw a injured elk or deer suffering from a gun shot or an arrow would u guys put it out or let it go??

[robbykaiser1984]

good people doing good things way to go good job

[superpogigeniusman]

The Elk that got away ran out onto the highway and got hit by a car, it killed a whole family. Very sad. I went to the funeral. The guy who cut those elk apart should be convicted of manslaughter.

[Rav3ism3]

@superpogigeniusman He helps a wild animal and a tradegy happens and u want to try and blame him? Shame.

[MrJesspatrick]

@superpogigeniusman You are retarded. Should the elk have been arrested for impeding traffic as well? This guy did what I would have done. Definitely sad about the accident. Wouldn't wish that on anybody, but anywhere there are a lot of elk crossing the highway, there are signs, so...

[detectiveinspekta]

@superpogigeniusman lol :)

[TheColumbianOutdoors]

@superpogigeniusman Shut up kid.

[Albeastii]

pshh it probaly ran off and got shot n bagged 10 minutes later

[blackfeatherarchery]

This is truly what a hunter is a animal saver, It make's me proud to be a hunter.

[horsebackarchers]

Very nice!

Thank you "Combat Archery" to send the link.

Greetings from Athens-Hellas!

[7466309change]

where they starving when you found them?I am glad you helped.

[Albeastii]

I see dinner on the ground

[wlopez24]

@Albeastii In Montana you can only keep it if you use up your tag, otherwise it's coyote food! Props to montanafordguy for helping out these"deer"/elk!

[tank2449]

Whut wus the red stuff on the horns and good for u to save one

[xPAndrew]

@tank2449 Twine.

[tank2449]

@xPAndrew ok how did it get twine on it head

[xPAndrew]

@tank2449 Usually ranchers use twine to hold round and square bales together. Once the cattle have eaten the bales, all thats left is the twine and the rancher balls it all up and put it somewhere stupid for things to get caught in it.

[tank2449]

@xPAndrew Wow so its kind the dumb ranchers fault and thanks for explaing it to me cuz it looks really weird

[wolveshockeyrs]

isnt there a video of the exact same pair of elk fighting and getting their antlers caught in twine on youtube?

[nixxi1980]

Great job!!

[moparmusclecars]

Alright, good job! Glad to know you live in the same city as myself (Great Falls).

[vada2000]

bet the one on the ground did die... oh well free food!

[CoffeeChicken]

The elk on the ground seemed fair more weak or he was in shock.

[VegasGuns]

Wow, that takes some balls. Props to the stick-man. Impressive

[elkofdeath]

Good stickwork bro.

[JGS187]

What was the pink stuff on their antlers?

[LaurenMinutes]

looked like a bunch of that string you see around construction sites. Some careless r tard left it out there, they couldve died from starvation or shock being tied together without control but this guy did the right thing :]

[readydvd]

It was baling twine. Elk like getting into the Rancher's haystack. Easy food! They get wound up in it while eating. Elk are incredibly tough to keep out of haystacks. Ive seen them urinate on bales (which the cows won't eat)..

[CANDigB]

See, not all hunters are only in it for the trophy!! He saved one that will come back next year as a much bigger Bull!!

[buckskinz]

i am still eating the one that was on the ground!! it's a little tough but good

[jimbow11]

Thats really good of you guys to do that! It's really a shame that polution has reached this extent. Where i live in New Bruswick Canada there is no Elk, but everyday even as an enforcement officer i see it get worse and worse.

[phillipinpc]

what the heck is that? some kind of moose or what.

[Damico07]

wow that one was so tired it couldnt even get up n e one know if it survived?

[KMK39]

He did not

[cybele9876]

the one on the groung died

[rassi13]

yo man wat happened to the elk lying on the ground? did it die?

[Astrogothic101]

you should have shot them, they were nice sized bulls

[captaincadavor]

nice job fellas

[gdizzlesfc]

i would have petted the elk. did the one on the ground ever get up and run off or did it die?

[Thatmakessense356]

But good job

Either way is a win

Get killed by an elk would be interesting

or good karma

[Thatmakessense356]

you should have gotten on top of the standing elk and then untangled the elk

=awesome ride!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

JK

[22Gooopy22]

asi se ase

[boarderboy411u]

it is said that elk like to eat ppls nuts

[rebelzgrl]

Good job at cutting them free. That was risky. What ever happened to the other elk lying on the ground?

[KMK39]

The one died from exhaustion according to comments

[huntingforaliving]

wow how did they get that close without the other elk gettin its head ripped off

[LutefiskKing]

Good Work

[CornIsGoood829]

wow what an amazing sight to be that close

[Favre4EverMT]

Is that red twine?

[readydvd]

yes

[Favre4EverMT]

What the hell would it be doing up in the mountainainous region.

[readydvd]

Elk come out of the mountains to feed in the Hay fields. Elk are notorious for getting into haystacks and eating the Rancher's Hay. I've seen Elk climb up on the haystack and piss while they are eating. Unfortunately, that ruins the hay. Cows don't eat it once it's urinated on. Elk can become a nuisance. It's hard keeping them out. They like the easy way of getting food just as most other animals. That's a huge animal to keep out of a fenced area. They'll get in if they want to.

[Favre4EverMT]

Thats a good piont. I haven't seen many elk in my area. Hoping I can get to go for one in 08! When I went to Yellowstone Nationla Park a 7-6 bull bluff-charged me. It was during the rutt.

[readydvd]

Good Luck on your Hunt. It's one heck of an animal to hunt. We're in a great that give you the opportunity to hunt them. There's lots of them around too.

[Favre4EverMT]

Yah no kidding. The only animal I got to shoot this year was a 5-6 non-typical Whitetail deer. It wasn't super non-typical, just had a nother tine breakin off of its G-3 on each side. I had only been out on the field for like 2 minutes.

[phoenix1916]

I love this video, it show the compassion country people really have, ye sure we hunt and kill animals, however some city knob who seen this would have said, well let nature take its course and left them to a slow agonising death

[jbwhite3]

Hey that was a great thing you guys did.....

[ctgolfer]

Great job guys, nice to see you help that bull out, maybe youl get a shot at him this season.

[uniquifiant]

Good on you! Both elks would have suffered a slow death if not for that man.  I wonder what became of the other one...

[sevenleafclover07]

Indeed...what is that stuff in between them though thats holding them together...grass?

[readydvd]

It's twine from a hay baler.

[kreeper88]

Down in Eastern oregon on the ranches we lived on I've seen a couple Mule deer bucks locked with their antlers entwinedan the craziest was a pair of Antelope locked up.One buck was dead the other would have prolly died also within the next day or two . It was so weak you could just push him over an so one of the ranch hands took out a hand saw an cut the horn.

[Atech66]

Nice job.. people think hunters are cruel and heartless, they don't get that we will actually go out our way to help any wildlife suffering. Most people do nothing for the well being of our natural resources and still complain from thier computers in some states from thier new homes that impede on natural habitat crowd herds cause disease and starvation.. but hey you can rationalize anything I guess.

[readydvd]

Very True!

[YognautBlueerat]

@Atech66 I get yelled at and hated on every day because I hunt, people don't understand we have to eat food too, and that we don't go out and kill everything we see.

[frutsak]

Good sport!

[waderow1]

good for you guys!  i hope the other one got up too

[montanafordguy]

I believe he ended up dying.

[KertCobain]

Wonder how.

[readydvd]

You wonder how disease gets started by overpopulation? Elaborate and I'm sure you'll get an answer.

[KertCobain]

Blah.

[farelane460]

The other one ended up dying because he was to weak and during the rutt they're using all their energy to find and defend pussy.

[mackdaddypimp32]

@montanafordguy did u at least get the lil rack he had



[peanutboy205]

that was cool !

Do u hunt? if u do then u should go live with penguins.

[anavidhunter]

Way to go, that is just awesome. ***** great vid and great to see the elk get to be free of that frustrating nightmare. They must have been hating that tangled mess. I wonder if it was on one elks antlers and then they rumbled and got tied up together...great clip. Probably not a good idea to harvest for food, as they would have been stressed out.

[mountainjune]

I forgot. Nice job.

[mountainjune]

They taste better than deer!

[ytac05]

hey, where is the rest of the vid?

good job though

[aelknut]

It's rare but it happens! I picked up a set of elk sheds a couple of years ago that were entangled in about 30 feet of barbed wire, that bull survived to see another day. Great video

[readydvd]

Wow, that must have been something.

[kittysnak69]

nice save

[rlslim494]

Ballsy move, I wouldn't get that close to a live elk. G-Funk represent

[KitariLostSoul]

good job saving the deer! to bad about the other one :(

[montanafordguy]

These are Elk.

[zPumaconcoloRz]

Elk are in the deer family

[TimPankratz]

But they are still different.

[TimPankratz]

also deer and elk are not related. believe me I know this I live on the Missouri breaks in MT by the Charles Russell Refuge

[MaltaMTsugar]

yeah deer are in the cattle family. dead serious.

[countryboy5167]

@KitariLostSoul haha thats an elk. thats there is funny shit what u just said

[Photoguide]

Nice work!

[wasted211]

thats crazy!!

[dustyroar]

wow! that's is great you save the animals. What happen to bull on the water?

[montanafordguy]

From what I heard, he ended up dying.

[bennwj]

I once cam upon two magnificent whitetails that died because they were locked together. It must have been one heck of a fight. I hope the other one lived.

[Schnupfndrache7]

the bull on the water died i guess since he must have been hurt from the other one
