Rocky Mountain elk are one of the biggest mammals in Colorado. Bulls (males) can weigh 700 pounds and have antlers with a spread of up to five feet. In September and early October the rut, or mating season, takes place. Bulls will make their way down to the large herds of cows (females) and their calves (young).
