*claps* That's what I came to this thread for.

Remember, Elks are most dangerous when they're rutting...or holding bingo night.

Cool. Two elk in the parking lot, kids running wild. It was a middle school, chances are the kids would never notice the elk rampaging around.

I poop too much.

That would be pretty damn cool to see.

I wouldn't let kids anywhere near them either. Kids are stupid and mean, and I'm sure if an elk accidentally ran one down the results would not be good (assuming you liked the kid).

The winner became the team mascot.

understandable. our local high school in gardiner, montana had to cancel basketball practice when buffalo blocked entrance to the gym.

Damn gangbangers!

I am sure that made for an amusing school day for the kiddos.

having grown up in Ft Collins, I have to say the most obnoxious thing I saw as a kid was the waves of "My student was a student of the month at Walt Clark Middle School" coming to shop at our mall.

I don't think you understand that an Elk in rut, is one of the most dangerous animals in NA. They would run down the kids for the fun of it.

There's a PBF for any occasion.

What closes schools around the world:

Colorado: two elk fighting
Colombia: cartel activity
Israel: unexploded katyusha
Japan: robot uprising

berylman: I am sure that made for an amusing school day for the kiddos.

I agree. I remember it being a relief to have unusual circumstances divert everyone's attention from the monotony of school. When every freaking day is the same is when kids lose interest in school and search for alternative activities that can be good or bad.

The plant I used to work at had a herd of deer that lived on the grounds. As no one was allowed to hunt them, they were huge and utterly fearless. They would eat the landscaping, walk down the sidewalks, and wait for security to open gates for cars so they could walk through the protected zone.

Can't imagine elk being that gutsy. Geez. Deer were annoying enough.

haemaker: Where's Sarah Palin when you need her?

She hunts Moose, not Elk.

I used to work in Yosemite park, and ALL the animals are like that. They just look at you funny when you meet them on the trails...and go back to what they were doing, including sleeping right in the middle of traffic.

Totally obnoxious. Worst of all...the squirrels. A Yosemite park squirrel is equal parts Caddyshack gopher and New York City rat.

colorado school + lockdown = gun thread?

I had some elk in Breckenridge and it was delicious.

Haha, very well put. You don't even want to know what upper Yukon territory squirrels are like. Part Jim Carrey on acid and Lou Dobbs on nitrous.

/ok, I made that last part up

Meh. Total overreaction. Now if there were a couple of Shriners out there doing donuts in those little cars, then we're talking danger.

Sounds like lunch to me.

The first rule of the Elk's Fight Club is: You don't talk about the Elk's Fight Club.

Huh. Not every day that your old middle school hits fark. Elk are really common in Loveland though so it's not really a big deal.

/Agrees with Gals Panic.

I have only one thing to say:
OM NOM NOM NOM

/delicious

Are the elk fighting over their Brontosaurus theories?

Real headline trumps Subby's headline.

That's why it's good they reintroduced wolves. They're much more cautious now in the areas with packs.

a lion in a sidecar: Are the elk fighting over their Brontosaurus theories?

You may very well ask what it was I came for. This reference of yours to the theory of the brontosaurus is what I came for, and also the thing for which I was coming, which is yours, and that is what it is, the reference of the brontosaurus theory that you have made. How very true, my word, yes.

Which one is the elk?

A male elk is a bull and the females are cows.

Let's not start pointing fingers....

t_bunson: Which one is the elk?

That was actually similar to my first thought when I saw the picture.

Maybe the elk that that was a cow--which started the whole scuffle.

I need an edit button. >_
I meant "maybe the elk thought that was a cow."

When you have a bull elk trying to make you his biatch, I don't think you care much what the proper name for the female is, as long as it isn't yours...

Someone decided several years ago that it would be a good idea if elk were allowed to populate eastern Kentucky...because you know...narrow roads, coal trucks, and drunkass people with shotguns aren't sufficient challenges--we simply must have a "Level 3" for driving off the 4 lane highways.
