Elk on
overpass
Elk are large ungulates related to deer. They have white tails, reddish-brown
bodies, and large spreading antlers (which are shed each year). Often seen
in national parks, usually in groups of 25 or more;
but are also seen
frequently in the
central Cascades. Elk feed on grasses,
herbs, twigs, and bark. They migrate up mountains in the spring and return in
the fall. Males have a haunting, high-pitched bugling call used in mating in the
fall. Elk live 14-25
years. They are also a
key prey species for
predators such as wolves
and mountain lions. They
use the Banff
underpasses more often
than any other species. |
