*** About Elk

***: Elk, scientifically known as Cervus canadensis, are one of the largest species within the deer family, renowned for their large antlers which can reach up to four feet above their head. Typically found in forest habitats, they are native to North America and eastern Asia. Elk are primarily grazers and their diet changes seasonally, feasting on grasses in summer, and switching to shrubs and tree bark in winter. Social animals by nature, elk often form large herds which provide protection from predators like wolves and bears. The male elk, also known as a bull, is famous for its resounding rutting call during the mating season, a powerful element of their behavior to assert dominance and attract mates.
