Toweringly superior to common deer, the elk commands its domain with a vigilant presence. Formidable antlers, each tip honed to a wicked point, accentuate its aura of alertness. Propelled by muscular legs, it possesses a speed that dissuades smaller predators from challenging its dominion.
The elk (Cervus canadensis), also known as the wapiti, is one of the largest species within the deer family, Cervidae, and one of the largest terrestrial mammals in North America, as well as Central and East Asia. It is often confused with the larger Alces alces, which is called moose in North America, but called elk in British English, and related names in other European languages (German Elch, Swedish älg, French élan). The name "wapiti" is used in Europe for Cervus canadensis. It originates from the Shawnee and Cree word waapiti, meaning 'white rump'.
