@b3n00s There are North American bison and European bison, but bison and buffalo are the same thing. I'm from Manitoba, we have one on our flag, so I have some expertise lol
yet further proof that rut overides an elks brains. One of our bull elk (yes we raise them) once attacked a tree ... YES A TREE... until it was so exhasted that it fell down.
@Shokara2 Ungulates are scary when they are rutting, that's for sure. But to be fair, I think the rutting instinct overrides people's brains pretty frequently too.
This is extraordinary! Rutting season for Elk is Oct-Nov, whereas Bison rut in August September. Bison felt threatened. Though the Bison is twice the weight, the Elk's antlers made up the difference. [Bison Bull ~2200lbs; Bull Elk ~1100lbs] At one point, it seemed the Bison felt an antler tip goring on its head. Both seemed to figure there was no value in continuing. No cows I guess ;-) Actually an Elkson or Biselk would be impossible. Bison r 2 Elk as Humans r 2 Gibbons... ick.
It's not how big an animal is, even if the bufalo is bigger than the elk the elk can still have a chance to win, for example leopards are smaller than lions but they are faster or it's just like David who's gonna wipe Goliath ass haha
Pretty sure buffalo would win that, but I'm still wincing everytime it charges, the elks antlers must be pretty sharp and buffalo doesn't really have any defence against them, its just pushing right into them... ouch.
@robinhoodfromhun No, you see, the elk is a skinhead, and when he saw the bison, he called the bison a "buffie"... you see, in the animal kingdom, only buffalo are allowed to call eachother buffies., which is why he got so mad, if you don't remember, the elk have been oppressing the buffalo for decades... :D
For somebody who might actually have some knowledge on the subject, is it possible for the force of the bison to snap the bull elk's rack in half? (Just one side, you know....or both...I don't know.)
@Byatsat24 Well, it happens every day because there are tens of billions of animals. Animals do NOT want to fight, and even mating fights are highly ritualized and rarely very harmful.
Sheer bulk versus agility. The deer/elk would have been capable of hurting the buffalo seriously. But, fortunately both animals share the same (moderate) level of intelligence.
Certainly a fight for territory; thank you for the Video.
awesome vid. rare footage for sure. The buffalo had power while the elk had artillery. seemed like the elk was on defensive, while the buffalo went all out. differnet story had the elk poked the buff in the eye, ear , nose or something like that.
I just want to know what flies off @ 0:10 of the movie. Is it an antler from the elk or a piece of flesh on the bison? IMHO, this fight was a tie. I wish I had the adrenaline of that buffalo and the courage of that elk to hold ground like that
the elk is much more agile and could have easily run circles around that buffalo, those antlers could have some some serious internal damage to the buffalo, just because the buffalo is much heavier, never ever underestimate an elk, i've seen those things fight and its scary.
thats a small elk..
