Obviously today: Elk, Moose, Reindeer

As an intermission: Would you know which is which, of the above/below …?
And then, there’s continental differences …
First up, the Elk:

Servus Canadensis, the wapiti indeed. Next up, the Elk:

know as such in Eurasia including those tinny pebbles off the coast called the British Isles. Looks suspiciously like the Alces Alces that is the Canadian (oh well, and US, yes, whiners) Moose, doesn’t it?
Because it is…! But you moose’ent confuse the two with each other nor with the reindeer a.k.a. caribou:
reindeeris5
Rangifer Tarandus, since this one’s for Saami and Santa.

Are you feeling elky now ..? Or move to the Caribouan; you’ll never have problems with the above there …
