Elk Chorus

Yellowstone National Park

Description

Each year, Mammoth Hot Springs fills with elk (Cervus elaphus) that congregate for the annual breeding season. Listen carefully to this recording: Along with the screechy calls of Great horned owls (Bubo virginianus), you'll hear several bull elk calling to each other, their distinctive bugles ringing out of the crisp, autumn night.
