what are some elk adaptations
O ne of the most important adaptations that the elk has is their antlers. The antler is a long bone that is connected to the skull. There are usually six points, or protrusions, that are coming from the base.The range and size of elk antlers is so diverse that there isnât much of a range.Some of the larger ones that have been seen were 64 to 74 inches.n some cases a sudden jerk of the head is enough to break the antlers off. When the antler is broken off there is a very loud and audible crack that can be heard. Usually when the antler snaps the elk will run away in fear that there is a threat around(Whitehead 1972).
