Elk Meeting

Elk (Alces alces) Hunting or Moose Hunting is a popular sport (or as the hunters call it wildlife conservation), in Sweden. This year some 90 000 elks will be shot. There will be 300 000 hunters sitting on their stools in the forests around the country starting this week in September. I don't hunt. I take pictures. I took this photo in a forest in Tungelsta on my way home. I saw the elk and had time to set up the camera for a few photos. If you want to learn more, the Hunting Association has info in english.
