So, I know a guy…a friend let’s say……who was recently busted by an elk but he did not actually see it. I am…err, I mean….he is pretty sure it was just being seen by the elk two times in close proximity but not being scent detected. The animal ran away and barked, ran some more and barked again, and again, and again. Circled back for another look and barked some more. Acted like an old whitetail doe with all of the noise. But sounded more like a bull. Very deep, hollow, loud bark and several times there were a couple additional notes at the end that were almost like a chuckle.
Is there any noticeable difference between a cow bark and a bull bark? Seemed deeper and more complex than cow barks “he” has heard in the past. Not as much an alarm bark as a “laughing at the idiot” bark. And the circling back was likely an escape route that went downwind but it did not make it downwind before another visual.
