These majestic animals are one of the largest members of the deer family, standing as tall as 5 feet at the shoulder and weighing up to 1,000 pounds. Elk have a unique appearance with their large antlers that can grow up to 4 feet long, which they shed and regrow every year. Their coats are brown with a lighter tan color on their rumps, and they have a distinctive bugling call that can be heard during mating season.  \nElk are herbivores, which means they eat plants like grass, leaves, and bark. They live in a variety of habitats, including forests, grasslands, and even high up in mountain  \nmeadows. Elk have an interesting life cycle, starting as a calf born in the spring, growing up over the summer, and eventually becoming part of a herd with other elk. During the fall, elk participate in a mating season called the rut, where males compete for the attention of females.  \nElk have a unique relationship with humans and other animals in their environment. They are an important source of food for predators like wolves and bears, and they also provide valuable resources for humans, such as meat and antlers for tools and decorations. Elk have strong defenses, like their powerful legs for running and their antlers for fighting off predators. Although they may look similar to other deer species, elk are actually more closely related to the European red deer.  \nIn conclusion, elk are remarkable animals that can teach us a lot about the importance of respecting and understanding the natural world.  \n| Solve each problem.\u003Cbr>Use the article to answer the question.\u003Cbr>1) What is another name for elk?\u003Cbr>A. moose B. reindeer C. caribou D. wapiti\u003Cbr>2) What do elk use to defend themselves?\u003Cbr>A. powerful legs and antlers B. camouflage\u003Cbr>C. teeth and claws D. loud vocalizations\u003Cbr>3) How long can elk antlers grow?\u003Cbr>A. 8 feet B. 2 feet C. 4 feet D. 6 feet\u003Cbr>4) What predators rely on elk as a source of food?\u003Cbr>A. eagles and hawks B. foxes and coyotes\u003Cbr>C. wolves and bears D. lions and tigers\u003Cbr>5) What type of call do elk have during mating season?\u003Cbr>A. bugling B. chirping C. howling D. roaring\u003Cbr>6) How tall can elk stand at the shoulder?\u003Cbr>A. 5 feet B. 6 feet C. 8 feet D. 3 feet\u003Cbr>7) What season do elk mate?\u003Cbr>A. spring B. fall C. winter D. summer\u003Cbr>8) What type of diet do elk have?\u003Cbr>A. herbivore B. insectivore C. carnivore D. omnivore\u003Cbr>9) Which European deer species are elk more closely related to?\u003Cbr>[A. red](A. red) deer B. muntjac deer C. roe deer D. fallow deer\u003Cbr>10) When are elk calves born?\u003Cbr>A. fall B. summer C. spring D. winter |  |  |  |  | Answers\u003Cbr>1.  \u003Cbr>2.  \u003Cbr>3.  \u003Cbr>4.  \u003Cbr>5.  \u003Cbr>6.  \u003Cbr>7.  \u003Cbr>8.  \u003Cbr>9.  \u003Cbr>10.   |  |  |  |  |  |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| 1-10 | 90 | 80 | 70 | 60 | 50 | 40 | 30 | 20 | 10 | 0 |\n\nReading [www.CommonCoreSheets.com](www.CommonCoreSheets.com) Page 2 of 2  \nElk, also known as wapiti, are fascinating creatures that roam the forests and grasslands of North America and Eastern Asia.
