Best Answer

Elk are primarily grazers, although they are more selective of what they eat than roughage herbivores like cattle. They eat grass as well as leaves of shrubs and trees, and can be found grazing on the open exposed slopes of mountainsides during the winter. In the summer, they are mostly in the forest and lower open meadows.
