Elk locked up
Story from the e-mail I received:
Guys, Here is how my day started yesterday (11-29-2007) Got a call that 2 bull elkwere locked up and one was dead the other still alive. The bulls were in a field about 15 miles Northeast of Monticello. When I got there I actually found 2 bulls locked antlers... I thought thisonly happened in other areas... J. and I were going to tranquilize the bull and saw antlers...one problem..we did not have enough of the drugs to do a good job. So we walkedout there and sawed the one point off of the dead bulls right antler and then we had to saw the main beam of the left antler to get the other bullfree. The whale tail was over the bulls eyes, lodged between the eye guards. When we cut it free the bull stood there for awhile catching its breath withthe piece of the antler still in it's antlers. When it took off the piece ofantler came out... WOW! this was for sure one of the most memorable days.... Enjoy the pics.

The remaining live one must have been on the brink of exhaustion as well. Job well done in freeing him!
