You certainly don’t see a never ending stream of elk every day. Traffic can be incredibly frustrating. I don’t have to really tell you that… we all know it, and we’ve all had at least a temporary moment of road rage (right?). Stand still traffic jams always come at the worst possible time, and there’s nothing worse than adding minutes – if not hours – to a trip or commute. But does an elk-induced-traffic-jam make the wait any better? The silver lining is that this kind of traffic beats your typical gridlock any day of the week. I guarantee you that you’ve never stopped to admire the hundreds of cars in front of you, but you’d likely be happy to put the car in park to watch hundreds of elk stampede across the road. Animal-induced traffic is more common than you think. If you don’t believe me, you are welcome to check into this traffic jam that was caused by bison , or feel free to watch this video of a parade of elk running across a Montana highway……
