By early June the vegetation along the roads in Prince Albert National Park is inviting for wildlife like this elk. Observing at a distance for about ten minutes, the elk lifted its head only once, and I missed that opportunity. This is one of the better images I was able to get.

I took this image of an elk from my car. The animals in Prince Albert National Park find the browsing good in the ditches beside the roads in the park during the summer months. This is one of the first images I took during a ten minute encounter with this elk.

An elk seen beside a road in Prince Albert National Park. It had been raining, so the elk was wet. I don't know a lot about them, but I am guessing that the lighter coloured fur is part of a winter coat that had not completely disappeared.

A flag bearing the coat of arms of the Hudson 's Bay Company, with the Latin motto roughly translated as, "Skin for leather." Since beaver pelts were the primary item traded by the HBC, four are depicted on the coat of arms, which also includes two elk and a fox.
