ADAPTIONS TO THERE ENVIORMENT
One of the most important adaptations of an elk is its antlers the elks antlers grow up out of its head and there are usually 6 points. The antlers very in size witch gets bigger every year and the bigger the antlers get the more dominate that elk becomes. that is helpful because the bull elk can defend its herd easier and also during the rut make it harder to fight for other bulls.

The Next Abduction is behavioral
Just like other herbivore species in Elk migrate to higher elevation in the spring to berth there young. Elk migrate to lower elevations in the fall after there offspring have grown and become able to leave there summer grazing in higher elevation. In lower elevation they will wait on the winter and do the same thing all over again.

Behavioral abductions
Big bull Elk use there antlers to defend there selves. This behavior is mostly used during the rut to impress females, and to fight against other bull elk for the females. During the rest of the year they use them for defense in the spring the bulls lose there antlers. When there antlers start growing back they have velvet on them. They rub the velvet of during the summer when they are getting ready for the rut.
