Can elk grow this big?

OK, who shot Thrandruil’s horse?

I found this on you tube, old photos of native americans.

I never saw an elk this big, and with such antlers, like moose?!

Is this possible or is it a photoshop?

The face looks more like a cow, like a Herford cross. Maybe a fallow deer.
 
To my knowledge this is the current #1 B&C Alaska-Yukon moose, killed in 1973 in Alaska. Score 248. Mount currently in Ted Stevens Intl Airport, Anchorage

Below is museum example of extinct Irish elk

Obviously photoshopped, I have seen some pretty huge elks but that elephant big.

Nice Report! Im about to pull the trigger on booking the LDE with Patrick. I have been talking about it with him for about 3 yrs now. Romain hit me up the other day with an offer I can't refuse for 2027.

Andrew, I commented that your on 375 H&H for sale was the fair price.

Like I commented, my classic stainless has the original 24” barrel.

Did you buy yours with the barrel already cut down to 21” or did you do it (or a gunsmith)?
