Another one taken just after dawn in the Cataloochee Valley area of Smoky Mountain National Park. This bull and his harem grazed in the Valley. I understand that the National Park Service tries to collar and/or tag all elk in the park. Although I can clone out the collar I choose to leave it on this shot.

C&C welcome and appreciated. Thanks,
