A family outing in Estes Park, Colorado, nearly ended in disaster after a man let his daughter wander right up to a huge bull elk with her phone. A passer-by captured the encounter on camera, and can be heard pleading with the girl to step away or risk being gored.
Thankfully this particular animal chooses to ignore the intrusion, but not everyone is so lucky. In October 2020, a man suffered a puncture wound that sliced his kidney in half when he was gored by an elk on a Colorado golf course.
