No Elks just Wapiti Bulls why?

[Spada]

Hi, i need 1 perfect Elk pelt but can't find one single elk only Wapitis can you help me please?

From the wiki: "The elk can be found in regions spanning from southwest Tall Trees to northeast Roanoke Ridge."
Personally I usually find them near the water around lake Owanjila

What?

You asked where to find the Elk?

EDIT: I also had problems finding Elks. I spent a lot of hours without seeing one (I went to all the locations mentioned on various forums and guides, without any luck). Then, just out of nowhere, I came across a few at the spots where before I couldn't find a single one. Im still not sure if this was patched, is it made to be like that, or just bad luck.

Plenty of elk in Tall Trees, to the East of Manzanita Post towards Aurora Basin.

Have you tried using bait and sent repellent? Elk our native to Ambarino and northern New Hanover.

Dont bother, go hunt for other animals you need. Im almost certain you will met an elk along the way ;)

Oh...
Let's recapitulate this.

There are only 3 species of the deer family in this game.

• White tail deer (doe & buck)
  
• Elk (cow & bull)
  
• Moose (cow & bull)

Now, the confusion might be because the moose (Alces alces) is called moose only in North America, while it is called elk in Eurasia.

The elk (Cervus canadensis) is in fact called wapiti.

So Elk = Wapiti? no way.

Because when i killed a Wapiti i get Wapiti Horn instead Elk Horn.

Moose (American English) = Elk in British English = Elch in German

Elk (American English) = Wapiti Hirsch in German

In any case, I suspect you're indeed looking for a moose, as they are by far rarer than elks.

Try looking at Aurora Basin.
I've hunted cow moose near the water there.
Also between Wapiti Reservation and Cotorra Springs.
