BAKERSFIELD, Calif. (KBAK/KBFX) — A bull elk lets out a bugle, which was captured on a Ring camera at a resident’s home in Tehachapi.
The company, Ring, said it came from a customer, Fernando. It happened on November 13th.
The customer said:
During the fall months, the local elk move higher up into the hills as they begin ‘the rut,’ which is mating season. Throughout the season the males and female elk usually separate themselves by gender. During the rut, the dominant bull elk gather as many females as possible to create a harem. This time of year, it’s common to catch elk on my Ring camera as they like to feed on acorns from my oak trees. I’ve grown used to seeing all kinds of wildlife around my home just outside LA, but a visit from a whole elk harem still puts a smile on my face. I shared the video because most people don’t realize just how much wildlife lives right at our doorstep.
In the video, an elk can be seen going up to the door, making a call, and walking away. There were over 10 elk in the video.
