It’s Friday and our Visitor Experience team is going wild for wildlife in today’s takeover! Have you ever heard an elk make this sound in the video? September through to late-October is known as rutting season which is when a bull elk will bugle to show off their fitness to cow elk and to other bulls. During this time they become extremely aggressive, especially if you are too close to their harem, so it’s important to never approach a herd and give them plenty of space. Dogs must always remain

Wildlife need space to survive and thrive. 💚🐾 Whether you are exploring Banff National Park by foot, bike or vehicle, when you see wildlife, give them space: ✔️Never approach wildlife. If you make them move, you are too close. ✔️Stay in your vehicle and continue on if you see wildlife roadside. ✔️Stay 3 bus lengths (30M) away from elk, deer, and moose. ✔️Stay 10 bus lengths (100M) away from bears and other carnivores.
