The elk is often considered the noblest, and most magnificent largest animal in the world. When the elk returned to the Bighorns, after a significant decrease in population in the late 1940's; it became a historical testament of the foresight and vision of the area landowners, game wardens, and cowboys to bring them back. Once down to nearly 27 elk at the time, thousands of elk currently roam the Bighorn Mountains near Buffalo, WY where they call home.
