bull elk with child

This morning a cow elk, protecting her calf charged at two groups of people. No injuries were reported. The area will be closed for a bout a week.

The area the elks are in as of right now is just south of Bridge Road after you cross the Bow River. The area is marked off via tape and signage. Entering the area could result in a $50,000 fine and/or a year in prison. Please respect the wildlife.

Listen here for a statment from Alberta Fish & Wildlife District Officer, Mark Hoskin.
