The Beautiful Elk

The elk, which is lso known as wapiti, is the largest species of deer. Elk are native to North America and eastern Asia but have been successfully introduced to a number of other areas.

Male elk have antlers, which begin growing in spring and they shed in winter. During the mating season, bulls will often engage in antler wrestling to defend his right to mate with his herd, or harem, of cows.
