Redwood National Park, home of the world's tallest trees.
A pair of stags, which can weigh more than 1,000 lbs each, lock antlers while trying their best fight moves. Who’s worst for the wear? A park sign that was no match for the rambunctious elk.
A few others make themselves at home at the otherwise quiet Prairie Creek Visitor Center near Orick.

Endangered Roosevelt elk nearly disappeared from California, but have impressively rebounded in recent decades. They number in the thousands in Redwood National Park and surrounding wildlands.
