A man learned a difficult lesson in wildlife safety at Grand Teton National Park this week, after getting too close to an elk and nearly receiving a face full of antler for his trouble.
The incident was recorded by a client visiting the park with wildlife safari guide Jacob Gore, who shared the video online. In the clip, the client starts filming the the bull elk grazing quietly in woodland, then spots a person seemingly trying to sneak up on the animal from the front to take a picture. Naturally this doesn't work too well – the elk spots the individual, and forces them back with a fast warning charge.
