Oregon Archery Hunted Killed by Elk

This is a crazy story. Makes me question if this was truly a wild elk or if it had been habituated to humans. If all elk had the same attitude issues grizzly bears do, they could mess up a bunch of archery hunters.

Thats the risk WE all take going into THEIR home. No differant than an intruder entering OUR homes and attempting to cause harm. No one is perfect but damnit we owe it to the game we chose to hunt to make a clean ethical kill.
