The elk, also called the red deer or wapiti (meaning "white rump" in the Shawnee language), is a large, hoofed, noisy, and social member of the deer family.
Elk are found in open mountain forests and valleys in western North America. They have a life span of about 8 to 12 years in the wild.

Anatomy: The elk is up to about 4 to 5 feet (1.2-1.5 m) tall at the shoulder. They weigh from 325 to 1,100 pounds (147-500 kg). Males are much larger than females. Only bulls (males) have branching antlers (which are shed and re-grow each year) and a shaggy mane. The largest elk antlers are about 4 ft (1.2 m) long. Elk have hoofed, two-toed feet, long legs, thick brown fur, and a large body.

may refer to a number of species of large deer:

* The name originates with Alces alces, the largest extant deer species, called the elk in Europe and the moose in North America.
* In North America it refers to the elk (Cervus canadensis). The various North American subspecies are also called wapiti.
* In India it was used to refer to Cervus unicolor, commonly known as the sambar.
* The word is also used to indicate Megaloceros, the extinct giant deer or Irish elk.

Elk may also be:

* An old name for the whooper swan or possibly the greylag goose (according to the Oxford English Dictionary)
* Ełk, Poland, a town in Poland
* Elk, California, a town in the United States

* Elk, the name of a character in .hack
* Elk Creek, several streams by that name
