“He was known as ‘Octane,’ and he was a perfect specimen—everything a dominant bull elk should be … big, tough, fast, loud, aggressive, and easy on the eyes. For well over a decade, he defended his harem, fought off lesser bulls, and treated countless photographers to an incredible show. His amazing life truly was a highlight reel that I, along with many others, was blessed to document. I miss him greatly, but he lives on in photographs and paintings like this.” – John Hafner
