Good morning. I'm Michel Martin.
Some recent visitors to Yellowstone National Park spotted a newborn elk. While others might have snapped a photo and moved on, these tourists decided to drive the elk calf to a police station.

So, as park officials say, enjoy the scenic wonders, but don't let them take your life away.
