Where to See ELK in Great Smoky Mountains National Park

Описание: #elk #greatsmokymountains
The Great Smoky Mountains National Park elk reintroduction program kicked off in 2001 with the release of 25 Land Between the Lakes animals. Another 27 elk were brought in the following year. Early on, the reintroduced population struggled a bit: Black bears killed significant numbers of elk calves. But before long this new generation of Smoky Mountain elk wised up about bears and their numbers grew. Today, some 200 elk are reckoned to roam the Great Smokies.
