Summary

[edit]
Description

For your personal safety, stay 75 feet/ 23 meters (5 car lengths) away from deer and elk.

Sometimes they seem to be in their own world, so it is easy for a person to get in closer; but don't.

With no warning, an elk can single you out and charge, using their hooves and body mass as weapons. Always leave animals enough room to make an escape if they feel threatened. You are too close if your presence causes them to move. NPS photo by Michael Quinn
