Gosh, he looks like he has a missing leg? But I don't think so?
That must just be a 'merger'? Why do you call him Mr Wapiti?
And where did you find him? Wow, what an amazing animal!! Great photo...Verena
Nope, no missing leg and no merger. He was one the move when I captured him. Actually I made about 10 or 12 exposures, this is the one I like best. Wapiti comes from the Cree Indian language where it is spelled waapiti.
