The world-famous Kaliningrad female elk has a baby!
A year ago, I published a video taken from a drone, in which a female moose became interested in my drone - she approached him and even tried to touch him with her face. I at the last moment abruptly raised the drone up to avoid an accident. This funny episode became very popular on the Internet - foreign, federal and regional Russian mass media wrote about it, and also the elk got on the American television show.
This time, a year later, I again met a familiar elk in the same places and she brought her baby, obviously, to introduce him to the drone. The elk allowed the drone to fly up closer than five meters and therefore the video was as detailed as possible.
As you can see, the color of the calf's fur is very different from the mother's wool, and this fact only decorates the resulting video. The video shows that when the drone flies as close as possible to a pair of elks, the female elk makes sounds, most likely addressed to her cub, but at the same time the female is in no hurry to leave - she sees no danger.
Of all the many moose I have seen during the year of filming, only this elk invariably shows interest in high technology. Most likely, the elk understands that it is not just a very big “buzzing fly”, since its extreme curiosity drowns out the fear of the unknown.
Adult elk males usually prefer to ignore the drone, even if it flies as close as possible - this can be seen on one of my old videos, and the rest of the females and young elks, immediately after an unexpected meeting, try to quickly hide in the forest.
