There are propaganda slogans of elk

Elk is a large herbivore with a body length of170-217cm and a tail length of 60-75cm. Elk has a strong neck and back, strong limbs and developed lateral hooves, which is suitable for walking in swamps. Hair is reddish brown in summer and brownish yellow after depilation in winter; Newborn cubs are orange with white spots. The long tail is used to drive away mosquitoes and flies to adapt to the swamp environment.

Elk originated in the swamp area in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River in China, and flourished before 10000 -3000 years. Elk fossils have also been found in Korea and Japan.

Later, due to natural climate change and human hunting, the Yongding River flooded in 1894, which destroyed the wall of Royal Hunt Garden. The remaining elk escaped, were hunted and robbed by hungry people and later Eight-Nation Alliance, and disappeared in China. Although the wild milu deer became extinct, the natural population of milu deer was finally re-established in China through stocking.

Extended data

Population growth and agricultural development have invaded the living area of elk. The killing of human beings has seriously affected the survival of elk. Archaeological findings show that the number of elk bones unearthed from human sites 65438+ 10,000 to 4000 years ago is equivalent to that of domestic pigs. It can be seen that at that time, elk were hunted as food by humans.

1986 On August 4th, with the joint efforts of the World Wildlife Fund and the Forestry Department of China, 39 elk from seven zoos in Britain returned to their hometown-Dafeng, Jiangsu, and were kept in Dafeng Elk Reserve. China Elk is mainly distributed in three nature reserves, namely Jiangsu Dafeng Elk National Nature Reserve, Beijing Daxing Elk Garden and Hubei Shishou Elk National Nature Reserve.
