Elk primarily feed on a variety of trees, but they are particularly fond of aspen, willow, and cottonwood. They also browse on coniferous trees like lodgepole pine and Douglas fir, especially in winter when other food sources are scarce. Elk prefer younger trees and saplings, as these are more palatable and nutritious. The presence of these trees often indicates suitable habitats for elk populations.

NO: Q: What do elk eat? A: Again, elk are grazers, just like cattle. Elk are more "efficient" grazers than cattle, however. A good rule of thumb is that if your land will support 1 female dairy cow, it will sustain 3 female elk. This results in an overall lower cost since you fence and manage 1/3 as much land for the same herd size. Elk do require better forage to maintain optimum condition, so pasture improvement is sometimes recommended. During velveting and lactation, elk have higher nutritional needs
Usually changes in access to food or other living conditions.
