A bull elk with magnificent antlers that was a favorite of photographers and visitors to Rocky Mountain National Park has died, according to the National Park Service.
Known as “Bruno,” “Kahuna” and “Incredibull,” the Colorado animal was estimated to be over 10 years old.
“His cause of death is unknown,” according to Kyle Patterson of the National Park Service.
“He could have died from natural causes or been preyed on by a mountain lion,” Patterson said. “He got hurt during the rut this past year from another bull.”
She said the Park Service is keeping the location of the elk’s carcass a secret.
