![]() Antlers can weigh up to 40 pounds per set. Therefore, female elk will generally select a dominant bull with large antlers. Large antlers advertise dominance and the ability to defend against predators and other bulls. Antler growth is in preparation for the mating season, which primarily occurs in September and October. Antlers, unlike the horns of bison, are shed every spring and a new set is grown. Only bulls have antlers.Īntlers play a very important role in mate selection. Female elk, known as cows, weigh between 500 and 600 pounds, and stand an average of 4.5 feet at shoulder height. Once fully grown, a bull elk averages 5 feet tall at the shoulders and can weigh between 7 pounds. Adult male elk, referred to as bulls, attain their largest size at 7 years old.

He has come back to visit a few times, but I haven’t seen him in the past few weeks. Google “Elk, AZ, Vet” and watch the AZ family story to see the miracle. The most accurate story is the one that ran on the Phoenix, AZ news. ![]() The story made national and international news. It was a true miracle!!! I have been criticized that I could have been severely injured or killed, but I was never scared. I was able to cut the swing off his antlers over a 12 hour period by just talking to him in a very calm quite voice. I didn’t have the luxury of a tranquilizer gun so had to rely on corn, pruners and prayers. I am a small animal veterinarian and have a very special bond with animals, but this unlike any animal I had ever helped before. After hitting multiple roadblocks in trying to get help for him, I decided I had to help him myself. He kept getting hit in the face with the log and was in distress. There was a log on one side and a tire on the other side of his face. Labor day weekend I had a bull elk come into my yard that was tangled in a tire swing. I’m not sure if it was vision or just a bad nightmare but I have never had a dream this vivid, with feelings, color, and sounds. The bull elk let out a painfully pound screech and then died. I then took the antler that broke off (it felt very familiar to me) and stabbed it through the neck for what felt like a long time. I grabbed the antler but the elk stabbed me through my right shoulder (I remember vivid pain). I somehow flipped the elk over the top of me (I remember it being very straining to do so) after I flipped it it broke my chair but it broke off one of its antlers. ![]() I took the chair I was sitting on and brought it to protect me and the elk got stuck in it. Then a massive bull elk about 8ft tall came out of the fog and charged me, It was a 15 or more point. The strangers fled with them and I was alone. Then a fog came Into the valley and a heard of cow elk came stampeding down the road, lots of bugles. The slightly smaller one was blood red and behind it. They where incredibly bright and the biggest in was a orange red. Then all of a sudden the full moon changed into two massive moons takeing up 1.5/3 of the sky. ![]() I was playing cards with a group of faceless strangers, no words where ever said. There was a road going through the valley and a single shack behind me with one lamp hung on the outside. I was sitting at a round table in a valley at night a full moon over head, Frogs where croaking around me. Usually I forget all my dreams but this stayed with me. This dream was extremely vivid and I remember it well. If you find yourself communicating with one of these creatures, positive changes are afoot. The vision can also indicate that you need to spend more time with friends and eat healthier. In this case, this relative of the Moose’s message is apparent, and they will also give you the strength and perseverance to complete the job. If you have an elk dream when you are beginning or starting a new project, they have arrived to guide you. Vitamins are also an excellent supplement for them. This type of diet will give them strength without stress. Therefore, people with the Wapiti totem will benefit from a primarily vegetarian diet. The best way to accomplish this is through the foods they eat. Also, people with this totem need high energy levels. They understand that they do not have to do everything alone and that help is waiting for them. Like the Horse, folks with this spirit animal will often feel the need for companionship or group support. They may not be the first to arrive, but they will get there without burning out. People with the Elk totem know how to pace themselves. ![]()
