This artwork not only adds aesthetic value to any space but also evokes a sense of peace and the enduring spirit of wildlife conservation.*** About Elk: Elk, or Cervus canadensis, are among the largest species within the deer family, found in North America and parts of East Asia. Known for their large antlers, which can grow up to four feet above their head, these animals play a crucial role in their ecosystems. They are herbivores and typically roam forest and forest-edge habitats, feeding on grasses, plants, leaves, and bark. Males (bulls) are famous for their bugling calls during the mating season, a sound that resonates through the mountains and forests announcing their presence and readiness to compete for mates. The social structure of elk is quite fascinating, often forming large herds that are matriarchal, led by a single female. Elk are also a vital source of food and materials for a variety of predators and human populations, respecting them as majestic and powerful representations of the wild.:
