Bull Elk Battle In the Great Smoky Mountains National Park Cataloochee Valley

Two bull elk in the Great Smoky Mountain National Park Cataloochee Valley battle for the right to the older bull's harem of cows during the September 2021 rut... If you would like to see the bull elk bugling or battling during the rut, make a visit to Cataloochee Valley (https://goo.gl/maps/h9GZTevCFSvMNxkL7) right before dawn or sunset during August and September when the elk are in the valley feeding on the grasses and bedding down for the night.
