Hundreds and hundreds of elk...Montana

I tried to find the video that is not FB related..but did not find it...so if you are not using FB you probably won't get this..sorry... pretty cool..Huge herd of elk in the Madison Valley..

I drive through this area every other week for work... wintering grounds for the elk..Its interesting, prior to the re-introduction of the wolves, they wintered a lot on the other side of the mtns in a different valley (Gallatin) ..once the wolves got going, they started wintering more here in the Madison, as its much more open terrain and a lot less snow, which makes it easier for them to spot the wolves coming and also easier to run in an attempt to get away ..only bulls winter in that same area now in the Gallatin..and they hang out on the very steep mtn sides...
