Very nice photos. I like what you did with the focus in the first pic. Not sure I like the soft edges on the one photo but that's a personal thing and some love it. What kind of camera did you use?

Gotta say my favorite is the cow nosing the calf. The cow looks like she just came out of a beauty salon!

I wish these Bulls were in an open unit, or heck even Utah for that matter. Unfortunately they are Roosevelt elk in Northern California or more specific Redwood national Park.

Great pictures. I assume that is a very impressive Roosevelt bull.

Roosevelt elk are a close cousin to the Rocky Mountain Elk which is common throughout most of the west and the most well known. Roosevelt are smaller and are found predominately in coastal areas in northern California, Oregon, and Washington. I'm not sure that there are any real physical traits that differentiate the two other than size. I have never actually seen one.

I would guess a similar example might be Mule Deer vs. Blacktail Deer.
