- A herd of tule elk leap over a fence in Point Reyes National Seashore, California. The herd moved warily along a California coastal hill as a herd of Black Angus cattle graze nearby.

Wildlife advocates and many park users are opposed after almost half of the majestic elks died while living in a fenced-in area in the northern part of the park.Robert Galbraith / Reuters
