Good Bull Guided Tours recently captured the moment a massive bull elk bugled at bystanders, including two men who were standing quite close to the animal. Bull elk aren’t too uncommon in Estes Park, Colorado this time of year, but the two men seem intent on filming the elk from an unsafe distance. Then elk then let out an impressively loud bugle, and they moved off to the side . . . although one of the bystanders needed someone to tell him to move first.

“That trumpet call is a warning . . . move or get moved,” wrote on person in the comments section.
“That’s what a telephoto lens is for,” wrote another.
Thankfully, the elk wasn’t feeling particularly aggressive that day.
