Elk in Cherokee, NC yesterday via video Jack Mayo. In 2001 and 2002, the National Park Service reintroduced 52 elk into the Cataloochee area of the Great Smoky Mountain National Park as part of an experimental project to determine if elk could survive and reproduce in the area. Some of these elk wandered outside the park’s boundaries and established ranges there. Recent studies estimate the herd is now close to 240 in Western North Carolina. #ncwx #wildlife #elk | Brad Panovich Meteorologist

🦌 Lots of excitement about horses lately, but we want to talk about elk! 👏 Spring is a wonderful time to see the elk in Great Smoky Mountains National Park! This time of year, pregnant female elk (cows) will move away from their herd to give birth in isolated areas and then return with their calf. 🌄 The best time to see the elk during the warm months is in the early morning or late afternoon. They're a sight to see, as females can weigh 500 pounds and males as much as 700 pounds! To learn mor
