Elk?
Yep, Elk………..we have the largest herd in Michigan.
They winter on my land.
Kinda surprised you don’t know that. Ya oughta come up once in a while.
I’d give you a tour.
Elk are massive animals. They’re about 4 times larger than a deer.
If you hunt them, you’re only allowed to take One Elk in Michigan in your lifetime.
I know a hunting guide, she’s real young but does a T.V. Show (Big Boys T.V.) and she always has success.

My land borders Pigeon State Forrest, Otsego County. Gaylord is the County Seat.
Every Deer season it seems some downstater poaches an Elk…….

An Adult Bull is very large. They are also extremely aggressive and have been known to charge vehicles.
If given a choice between running into a Bull Elk or a Female Bear with a Cub………most people up here would prefer the Bear.
