Talk:Coat of arms of Newfoundland and Labrador

message: * In Europe, Elk is the animal known in North America as the Moose (Alces alces).
* In North America, Elk refers to the Wapiti (Cervus elaphus), known as the Red Deer in Europe.
We should use North American animal terminology. Can we rename this ambiguous elk to either moose or wapiti? I'm curious to know which animal it is.--Sonjaaa 12:59, Sep 4, 2004 (UTC)

:: The original grant uses the word Elk which in England had the meaning of Moose. Without doubt the Garter King of Arms in 1637 used English normal terminology. I am changing the link from Elk to  Moose. Btw, neither elk nor moose was on Nfld at this period of time. In any case, the animal in the crest looks like a moose. Although the original drawing is more ambigious. Weatherford (talk) 21:46, 25 August 2020 (UTC)
