antlers off and able to barely get that tire off the top of it's head. we do annual surveys of wildlife populations and happened to run into the sky and he was really far back in and he did not expect to be able to get to him and then of years we would get more sightings and he would get more sightings and he would try and get close to him and he would be any act like a wild elk and would not let us close. tearing their breeding season which happens in september and october, they tend to lose a lot of their innovations and that was the way that we were able to sneak in closer because he was much more concerned with getting close to the female elk that he was hanging around and that was ultimately the way we were able to get a tranquilizer dart in him and eventually get the tire off his neck. , , ., .
