To distinguish between a deer and an elk, observe their size and antlers: elk are generally larger, with males weighing between 600-1,100 pounds and having long, sweeping antlers that can grow up to four feet long. In contrast, deer, particularly white-tailed deer, are smaller, typically weighing 100-300 pounds, and have shorter, more branching antlers. Additionally, elk have a distinctively larger and more pronounced body shape, with a thicker neck and a more pronounced hump on their shoulders compared to deer. Lastly, elk often travel in larger herds, while deer tend to be seen in smaller groups or alone.
