Elk are a fairly common sight in UnReal World. They generally respond to the player by fleeing, but may occasionally attack. Elk is one of the most meat bearing animals in the game and hunting them is one of the safer ways of getting meat from large game it can also be fun to hunt them. When you encounter an Elk it is best to hide H and wait a few turns -. If it is night most Elk will just simply fall asleep and you can sneak a few feet closer to get a good shot. Also if you manage to sneak all the way up to an elk and try to get a easy kill, it may not be and easy kill as Elk are very strong and have a very high damage threshold. Even a edged object as an axe may not kill the Elk with a swift blow to the skull or neck.
When killed, the elk yields 22 lbs of elk-skin, around 3 lbs of fat, and depending on the size, 200-400 cuts of meat.
Stags are the male version of elk, and are usually larger.

URW Game Encyclopedia description
The official URW in-game encyclopedia (accessed by the F1 key) describes the elk thusly:
The elk is the biggest animal in The Unreal World. Its height is about 2 meters and length about 3 meters. A bull elk can be as heavy as 600 kg. Only the bull elk have antlers. The fur is dark grey and brownish year-round. An elk is a very rewarding kill for a hunter. Typically one gets about 180 kg of meat from an adult and about 80 kg of meat from a calf. Elks are most active during the twilight time, around sunset sunrise. Elks eat leaves, shoots, twigs and aspen bark.
