Wapiti (Cervus elaphus)
The Wapiti is found in the Rocky
Mountain area of British Columbia, Canada. The Wapiti weighing up to
800 pounds is easily identified by the white patch on its butt and mangy
mane.
The Wapiti is the most vocal of
the deer family. The females bark, the young bleat and in mating season
from August to November the males bugle – the sound can carry
for miles and is very distinctive.
The Wapiti loves open fields in alpine meadows,
river valleys and parklands where it can find the grassy mouthfuls and
shrubby materials that makes up its diet. The Wapiti numbers are falling
fast and it is one of the animals that is very elusive in British Columbia
with only a few herds left in the higher elevations.
