***About Elk

***: Known for their impressive antlers, which can grow up to four feet in length, elk are among the largest species within the deer family, Cervidae. Found in forested areas where their diet can include grasses, leaves, and bark, these majestic mammals play a crucial role in their ecosystems. Males, or bulls, are particularly noted for their bugle calls during the mating season—a haunting sound that adds to the mystique of their natural habitat. Often seen as symbols of community, strength, and stamina, elk are not only important to the natural order but have also been a part of various cultural lore and conservation efforts.
