Elk -- Rocky Mountain High
These big rascals are very large deer. They
have a brown-gray winter coat, which turns to red during the summer. They
weigh from 600 to 1,000 pounds and stand 5 feet at the shoulder. Ten feet
in length, a bull (male) elk's antlers grow up to five feet above it's
head. Elk will eat grasses, trees and berries, among other vegetation. |
