GRCA Wildlife Safety Reminder: 2022 Elk Rut Season

From now through fall, male elk are in a period known as the rut. During this time, they become territorial and may become aggressive if approached or threatened. Please do not approach elk, stay a safe distance of 100 feet (30m) away, and never water or feed them for any reason.
