@nomadichiking: This happened in Cherokee, North Carolina, and it’s a good reminder of why you should never get this close to an elk. Elk may look calm, but they are still wild animals and can react quickly when they feel threatened. Bulls can weigh several hundred pounds, run around 40+ mph, and may charge if someone gets too close, especially during the fall rut. Safety tip: In Great Smoky Mountains National Park, stay at least 25 yards (75 feet) away from elk, and farther away if your presence causes the animal to change its behavior. If an elk approaches you, calmly back away and give it plenty of room. Enjoy wildlife from a distance. A video or picture is never worth getting hurt or causing an animal to feel threatened. #animalattack #respectwildlife #cherokeenc #wildlifesafety #greatsmokymountains

we literally preach to people about this. may refer to them as rez dogs but they ARE NOT big puppies. they WILL end your visit to cherokee early. next time, drive past it, rather than holding up traffic and or leaving your vehicle, like a complete idiot.

people don’t realize that if they bother the elf and the elk charges at them it will cause the elk to be put down all because of people’s stupidity the animal has to suffer the consequences of other people’s actions.

I hope the people in that jeep got some kind of repercussions for doing that! The elk wasn't even doing anything at that point. I hope their jeep is fk'd!

They literally have signs saying to stay back at least 25 feet. We saw a couple when I went a few months back and we made sure not to get too close. Snapped a couple photos got back in car and left them in peace

this is yearly all thru WNC we know we will see at least 10 videos a season of idiot tourists ignoring the PLETHORA of signs warning you to stay the hell away from the elk... if you give them space they are so gentile and peaceful and cool to watch there's absolutely zero reason to approach them EVER we have wonderful park service if one is injured or in need of help in some way CALL THEM PLEASE
