No, an elk is not a monogastric animal. Elk are ruminants, meaning they have a complex stomach structure with multiple compartments, allowing them to efficiently digest fibrous plant material. This adaptation helps them extract nutrients from their herbivorous diet, which primarily consists of grasses, leaves, and bark. Monogastric animals, like pigs and humans, have a single-chambered stomach.

The part of the ruminant digestive tract that functions similarly to the stomach of a monogastric animal is the abomasum. It is the fourth chamber in the ruminant's digestive system and is responsible for the enzymatic digestion of food, similar to how a stomach operates in monogastric animals. The abomasum secretes gastric juices and enzymes that break down proteins, facilitating nutrient absorption.
