Splendid Disney Documentary

A Walt Disney TRUE-LIFE ADVENTURE.

In this film we study the life of the OLYMPIC ELK, of Washington State's spectacular Olympic Peninsula. We see their remarkable trek from the winter lowlands, up to the high lush meadows for their summer feeding & breeding. The gathering & defending of harems by the bull elk is also portrayed.

`This is one of a series of TRUE-LIFE ADVENTURES presenting strange facts about the world we live in. These films are photographed in their natural settings and are completely authentic, unstaged and unrehearsed.' Winston Hibler is the narrator.
