Elk snaps its antlers during fight.
The popular Instagram page @goodbullguided shared a video of two massive elks locking antlers and trading blows……to the point one had its antlers snapped partially off.
Whiskey Riff speculated the fight went down in Estes Park. You can watch the incredible video below, and let me know your thoughts at David.Hookstead@outkick.com.
When I first watched the video, I thought the object moving on the ground was a rattlesnake that got kicked up.
It took me watching the video a few times to figure out that it wasn't actually a snake at all. It was part of one of the elk's antlers ripping across the ground.
It just goes to show how hard these two animals were hitting each other that one lost part of its headset.
