Item description from seller

Nature enthusiasts know rut is a three-letter word for sex and aggressive action. The fall phenomenon, occurring when North American horned and antlered animals are at their physical prime, features dramatic and dangerous fights, chasing, scent marking, and rubbing. It is the time of year when the thrilling whistle of a bull elk sweeps across the canyon; when lovesick bull moose curiously court dairy cows, and bighorn rams collide with one another with the combined force of 2400 foot-pounds. A hundred exciting color photographs vividly illustrate this spectacular fall ritual and author Ron Spomer's descriptive text explains the origins and reasons for this fascinating, seemingly bizarre behavior. Ron Spomer is a renowned American outdoor writer, photographer, and television host with over 45 years of experience specializing in hunting, shooting, and conservation. Please see our other hunting, fishing, and natural history titles.
