I do not have all the details, but 2 elk were hit by a car this morning around 8am in Floyd County. It happened on Ky Rt 3 near the Thunder Ridge race track.

I hope everyone was okay. I would hate to hit a animal that big

Driver was taken to the hosptial. Not sure on her condition. One was a calf and the other was a small bull, 3x3 I think.

I use to see them a lot driving thru there to work. Theres a big bottom on a steep right across from thunder ridge. Id say thats where they come from.

My prayers go to them and their families.......

Totally wild that they both got hit and killed, my Grandfather hit a horse one time in a semi, totally destroyed both Horse and semi cab.... I too hope the family/ woman are ok from this accident...But you know what you can't blame the animals or the Vehicle driver for the accident....

i came up on this wreck going to work the bull was still alive i am sure they had to put it down but it was on the side of the road looking . it appeared to be bigger than a 3 x3 though.

Hope she is okay, i bet the locals are growing more tired of these animals everyday.

I know a guy here close who has his satalite dish knocked out of whack all the time, LOL Elk like the dang thing for some reason. The only thing they have done to bother me is getting behind the house and keeping the dogs barking all night:rolleyes:

Im sure i would love them to see them in the backyard and stuff, but could imagine getting annoyed after a while. I still think they are awesome
