Given all the unpleasant discussions, how about something different. This morning the cow elk brought their calves out for the first time. There were four bulls at the house and in the adjacent field were thirty head of cows and calves. As the migration to the forest ensued a few calves had difficulty getting through the fence. As they squeaked their frustration, the cows barked orders, the bulls bugled and the valley echoed the elk orchestra.

No spotty bodies spotted.
Lots of small groups of cows & spikes. Momma has cleared the milk sack...lol.
 
My wife keeps track of the last snowstorm on the calendar and the when the calves show up. Over the last 34 years, the last snow is within 2 days each year of the same time. The calves show up shortly after. Life at 6700ft.
 
We saw numerous cows and calves on a parturition area in the northern Bighorn Mountains on June 4. Calves can usually start to be seen in the area during the last week in May.
