Counted at least 24 bulls. Lived in Eastern Oregon until age 18. Never saw this many elk bunched up - EVER. Amazing footage. Thanks a TON for uploading.

Wow, I never realized they travel in such huge numbers. Amazing.

WOW! So glad that I just stumbled across this video! Absolutely beautiful and breathtaking! I can't imagine how thrilling that was to see in person! I cannot believe how many animals were in that herd...just incredible! It made me reflect too, on how once great bison herds used to roam the west en mass just like these elk. Heartbreaking, the wicked senseless slaughter of the plains buffalo. But, so happy to see elk thriving! What a treat you got to see! Thank you so much for sharing it!!!! Beautiful country out there too! It was beautiful and I really enjoyed it! 😊

Wow.... never seen a herd that large here before. Impressive! 👍

Glad to see this still exists.

I have never seen something like this ever documented"not on nature shows news clips or the like .. SIMPLY AMAZING

The most I've ever seen was a group of 20. But let me tell you, a full rack Bull stepping out of the fog and into the path of your Western Star wakes you up better than Coffee ever would.

Wow!! That is amazing, such a huge gang!! They’re so majestic!

Thank you for sharing. Such a majestic animal. Came across one suddenly when hiking the Wolf Creek area in northern Yellowstone. Big male with big antlers, was almost out of sight, way up a hill before I could get my camera out ... glad he didn't come after me, I had just crested a small hill in a large clearing, no trees, no rocks nuttin'.

This is absolutely beautiful. Thank you so much for sharing.

Thank you for capturing that. Beautiful.

This is my home town!!! Thank you for sharing g what these elk have to do just to cross the valley and why I hate barbed wire.. but I'm happy to see that basically they are making it!!! Thank you for sharing!!!

We've got some of the best outdoors and wildlife anywhere on earth! Love our state for that!

That is good to see that some drivers respect animals. ❤

I read stories, hand written reports from settler's, notes from trapper's before 1850 about huge uncountable herd's of elk that roamed N America. Herd's that dwarfed the massive buffalo herd's that themselves took 2 day's to pass by. Wagon's stranded. The elk so dense settler's would move parallel to the herd just to keep moving. History only speaks of the Buffalo but the Elk far out numbered them. So good to see they've recovered .

Cool. There is an Elk refuge just outside of Jackson, Wyoming where as many as 15 thousand or more congregate during the winter cause they're fed there. It's amazing to see so many together.

W😮W ! ! This is some awesome Elk migration video. Thanks so much for sharing this w/us David Frost.

Wow! This is amazing! Thanks for sharing!

Wow, I had a big herd cross in front of me out in the sticks of Central Oregon, but it wasn’t near as massive as this!

Never knew they traveled around in herds THAT large.

My god! That was incredible to watch, mesmerizing. It was so natural with no music, just the wind howling in that open land and the incessant drumbeats of hooves. A gigantic herd! Such a joy to watch. Thank you for this beautiful footage.

I have never seen so many at one time together! Awesome! I saw a large herd of reindeer once in the Alaska, but not that many

Wonderful to see an elk herd that large in today’s modern America.

Ive never seen such a large herd....amazing!!!

beautiful. thanks for sharing, it gives one hope of natural survival.

I geeked out put in slow mode and counted the best I can tell that around 500 to 600

Thank you this is something I’d probably never see in person

Amazing video thanks Gabe Huntsville, Alabama

Beautiful. I sure hope the rest of the herd kept going. Something made them stop. Obviously human, but hopefully, the rest kept going.... I'm assuming they would. Thank you so much for taking the time to upload this video... Breathtaking

Absolutely 💯 beautiful to see wildlife flourishing in the wild!!

Some years back as I was passing through a small town in Colorado, a few came into town, then 10+ and then a massive heard took over the town. I was stopped, one came right up to my window and slowly went around me, it was surreal.

SO BUILD A CROSSING GUYS😁👍BEAUTIFUL...

❤❤❤thank you for filming that was so awesome

Thank you❤

One of the most amazing things I have ever seen.

This is amazing! Awesome video!

People used to think I was making up stories when I told about a similar herd of elk stampeding through our back acreage in 1973 when I lived in Summerville, Oregon (End Road/Mink Lane)

Wow, the amount of dirt that they move is amazing.

Woow! Thank you for sharing the beauty

First the cows, calves and yearling bulls and a few two and three year olds, then the large bulls will come down the mountain and join the heard. superb video, what a sight !!

A very beautiful sight. It's wonderful there are so many.

Is the large herd a usual behavior ? I've never seen this before... beautiful

Where in east Oregon is this? Edit: Never mind, I found it in the description. I grew up in Harney and Wallowa counties. Even for someone like me who was surrounded by wildlife my whole life, this is an unbelievable privilege to see a herd this size. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks for sharing that was amazing to watch.

It’s wonderful to see so many together!

Oh my God, I wish I was there!! How beautiful.....❤❤❤...

Daaaamn! Don't fence me in bro. What a beautiful sight. 😮❤

Greater Idaho. This area should not be in Portland's jurisdiction.

Amazing footage of a majestic creature. I miss seeing elk. Florida has very few!!

Beautiful!

A great place to look for Dropped Sheads. 😊😊😊

Amazing to watch and hear there voices!!!

it is a privilege to see that live. It is impressive indeed.

Beauty and Grace ❤

Congrats with appreciation to the camera operator with recording the event in wide-screen. It gets annoying when a unique event was recorded with the smartphone in the vertical position with its narrow view, when all the user had to do is rotate the smartphone 90 degrees to get the widescreen scope of the event.

Had you not shown this, I never would have seen it. Wow many thanks!

What a beautiful site

They ARE impressive as the lady said, so beautiful to see and in such large numbers. Animals are awesome! Thanks for the video.

i wouldve never dreamed there could be that many in one herd.they obviously have no mating problems.

Какое счастье их видеть живыми

Amazing! So good to see and know their around. Lovely! 😊

To correct my mistake Elkton is in the western side of Oregon I'm sorry I stated it like that but it is still a very beautiful place to see and all of the elk they have a refuge there and at any time you might see 5 - 10000 elk at a time it is a very awesome thing to see

All this country, it was their land first. They belong here. They are part of the land. ❤️😍🥰

Looks like they need a wildlife underpass bridge in that area to provide safety for the wildlife and drivers. Many states have installed them in known migration corridors.

Wow that is super cool absolutely great to see so beautiful

there’s something so calming to me about elk. they’re fascinating beautiful creatures. i just love them and i love seeing a healthy population

Enjoyed watching this video my friend Really awesome views Thank you Stay connected

That’s a lot of elk. I had a herd cross in front of me in Colorado. Not nearly as many, but still pretty cool.

That is so nice to see! Thanks for sharing.

Thanks for posting. I live in La Grande Biggest herd I've seen in some time.❤❤❤

That was an awesome site to see ❤

An amazing sight. Thanks!

Das ist sehr COOL 😎 VIELEN LIEBEN DANK ❤

AWESOME!!!!

Thank you for posting that it was amazing to see 🤗

Still wild out there. Fab.

Spike @ 1:30 was moving! I think that might be a new world record.

Enjoyed the video, but came here to read all the information from all the experts. Both the educated and uneducated ones alike.

This comforts me😊

If these elk regularly migrate, then accommodations should be made to allow them to do so more safely. They keep catching the fence, pulling up a fallen post, which must cause at least some of the animals to be injured. Why isn't there an opening to allow the elk safe passage?

Amazing! thx for sharing

WOW.. That's impressive. A couple of months ago when I was going up Hwy 191 in Montana and north of the Grand Teton national park and South of Yellowstone.. I came up about 100 or so Elk crossing the highway..

WOW 😮 Thanks for sharing 😊

This is very cool! I was once driving through South Dakota and a huge herd of Pronghorn ran across the road in front of us. We sat there forever as they were spread out and yeah...I just wanted to watch. Very desolate area, and they seemed to just come out of nowhere, but very amazing to see that.

❤❤❤so cool thanks for sharing this video

Great video, thx for sharing. I lived in WA State in the 80's and would see large elk herds now and then but nothing like this. Not only are elk beautiful, majestic animals, they also taste great: a nice elk steak with Texas toast and a side salad. Sign me up. The only thing better is buffalo

I really didn't know there were such large number of wild animals in the States, or Oregon at least.

That's a lot of elk ! 😯

Thanks for sharing

So beautiful Bless them

That's the biggest elk herd I've ever seen! Massive!

May God bless the American Serengeti!

That's awesome!

NATURE IS BEAUTIFUL. LETS DO OUR BEST TO TAKE CARE OF THIS PLANET, WE ARE LIKE TERMITES, LITTLE BY LITTLE EE ARE DESTROYING IT. That’s My HUMBLE OPINION.

What a great video!

Great video!

Dang that’s incredible ❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥

It is beautiful!!!

Extremely cool to watch them.

i can't believe this this is amazing
