LESSONS for ATTRACTING a HAREM
From a Handsome Bull elk, and a veteran of many ruts.

The KEY: Keep your energy up
Don’t go chasing all around the Kawuneeche Valley
Gathering cows and wearing yourself out.

You need to make the ladies come to you.
This takes more than an impressive set of antlers and solid muscle.
It takes an irresistible cologne, a unique smell.

So find a flat dirt spot.
Start digging around with your hooves.
Churn up even more Earth with those antlers.
Then spray the area with urine. Lots of it.
Now start wallowing. Roll around.
Really cover yourself with that smell those ladies love.

Now, walk away and wait.
Soon cows will be forming a line to be part of your harem.
