MADISON, WI (WTAQ-WRN) — The Department of Natural Resources is reminding you to keep your distance from elk.
Elk are entering their rut in northern Wisconsin and have begun “bugling”, which refers to the loud calls they make when finding a mate.
Wardens say you should refrain from trying to call the elk yourselves and let nature take its course.
Simply film or take pictures of the elk when you can see them and don’t hassle the elk or other people spotting.
