You really felt like the guy crossing the lawn and chased on foot by the elk was his fault? (seemed like he did a good job in handling it, probably not the first time he'd been chased)

I honestly didn't take it that way at all, though in fairness the beginning of the encounter is not on film. For all i know the guy might have tried to pet the damn thing.

As they told us in the Army over and over at the beginning of every field problem:

"Stay away from the wildlife."

That solves 99% of all problems before they ever happen i bet.
