The Elk Rut is Coming!


The Elk Rut is Coming!

The Elk Rut is almost upon us! Some of the Biggest Elk Bulls in North America will be Bugling, Battling, Herding and Courting during the most exciting time of Year for Elk Populations. The elk rut season is from late August through October, with some breeding activity continuing into November. Male elk, or elk bulls, are much more aggressive during this time. The peak of the elk rut season is when the most elk breeding activity occurs. During the elk rut season, there is lots of bugling, cow elk communication, and elk movement. During elk rutting season, bull elk may attack anything that comes close to them or their mates, which provides protection for the herd.
