Seven-Point Bull

I’m still upgrading my website by making each image larger. It’s a lot of work, but I think it will be a nice improvement to the site. One extra benefit is that I’m finding some images that I like that I didn’t know I had. This photo was taken in early August. As I often do, I came back to this photo after I published the blog and was struck by how wide this bull can open its mouth. For some reason, I pictured a set of canine teeth in there, developed for defensive purposes. I wonder what wolves would say — if they had any say in it? For that matter, I wonder what elk hunters would say?
