  • The Kentucky George Rogers Clark Chapter of the Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation
    Kentucky has the largest herd of elk east of the Mississippi with a hunting season and plans to assist other states in stocking herds of elk.

    Wapiti, also American elk, ruminant mammal native to the northern part of the western hemisphere from southern Canada to northern Mexico, and conspecific with the red deer of Europe, northwestern Africa, and Asia. It has dark brown fur on the head and neck, and creamy gray fur on the back and flanks. A full-grown stag stands up to 1.5 m (up to 4.9 ft) high at the shoulder, and weighs up to 340 kg (up to 750 lb). The antlers are smooth and attain a great size, averaging more than 1.2 m (more than 4 ft) each in length. The antlers are shed in March, begin to grow again in late spring, and are fully grown by fall. Wapiti graze and browse on grasses, twigs, and leaves.

    The wapiti formerly ranged throughout the temperate regions of the western hemisphere, but the advance of civilization limited its range and caused huge herds to be slaughtered for food and sport. The animal is now largely restricted to the mountainous areas of the western United States and Canada. The stags live alone or in small groups apart from the main herd during most of the year, joining the herd only during the mating season. At this time the stags fight over the right to the females, accompanying these fights with a braying call. In late spring some populations of wapiti leave the lowlands and migrate to the upper reaches of the mountain forests. The doe bears a single fawn. The animal known in Europe as the elk is known in North America as the moose.

    Scientific classification: The wapiti belongs to the family Cervidae. It is classified as Cervus elephus.1

  • Four Preparation Tips form the Hunting Society

    1. The best hunters are planners. Do it scientifically and don't rely on your memory or instinct unless when you can have real data.

    2. Scout your hunting area off season. Make a map showing deer sightings and signs ..

    3. Record your sightings and signs separately, if possible on a topographical map. Look for patterns of movement. Try to track migration by time. This will help you know where to set up our stand during hunting season.

    4. Put Lanocaine or Solarcaine in your hunting kit. They are marvelous for poison ivy and mosquito bite itches. Since odors are acid, use baking soda to neutralize your own and other odors.
