Antlerradar's post this morning reminded me of something I saw on The Facebook earlier this week.
The Montana RMEF put this up on their FB page a couple days ago.
This is an elk and its antlers over the years, starting in 2006 (the bottom left antler) and ending this year when it was harvested. The antlers are labeled by the year if you look closely.
I'm no expert, but in 2006, I would guess this bull was 3 1/2 years old. Being harvested in 2014, it was probably 11 or so years old at its death - and it sure didn't seem to go downhill.
Taken out of the Elkhorn Mountains.
