Photo Randy Vanderveen.Jasper AB.02/10/09.A bull elk keeps close watch over his harem of cows along the flatlands near the Athabasca River and the Yellowhead Highway in Jasper National Park. Within the park this bull only has to worry about other bulls interested in his harem or natural predators, his counterparts outside the park boundaries also have to be concerned with hunters looking for meat and trophy animals.
