This was taken late August/early September, its the time of the year

the Caribou lose the "velvet" covering the antlers. They grow new ones
each
year. The one in the back is in the process, the one in the front
hasn't
started yet. The velvet is a "skin like" covering, that when shed,
reveals
the bloody antlers. Soon the antlers will appear like a bony structure
and
the blood will disappear.
They brush their antlers on brush to help speed up the process.

Interesting. It appears that the creature in the rear has ripped the
horns
off a competitor. Is that what happened? Not as good aesthetically as
some
of your other shots from that trip, but fasdinating in content.

Whoops, take a look again, I mixed up my last PAW with a new one
that I forgot to publish. All should be ok now.
Sorry
