History:
Although elks primarily live in forest regions throughout Asia and North America, their ability to adapt to different areas has allowed them to also inhabit semi-desert and mountainous regions. It’s believed that in North America alone there are over 2 million elk, classifying them as an animal of least concern. However, prior to the European colonization of America there were over 10 million elk present.
