Washington Wildlife: Elk
Elk herds in Washington spend their summer months in the high mountains, feasting on their favorite foods. As winter approaches, these herds migrate down to the lower valleys for shelter and sustenance.
In the photo captured by Bill Kinney, we see a majestic elk in its natural habitat. The elk, scientifically known as Cervus elaphus, is a symbol of the state’s diverse wildlife and natural beauty.
As we admire these magnificent creatures, let us remember the importance of preserving their habitats and protecting their populations. Washington’s wildlife is a precious treasure that must be cherished and safeguarded for future generations to enjoy.
This postcard, published and distributed by Smith-Western Co., serves as a reminder of the rich biodiversity found in the Evergreen State. Let us continue to appreciate and protect the wildlife that makes Washington such a special place.
