Wapiti (Elk)

Lucky I took a photo of the sign at the zoo so I could remember what this gorgeous girl was.
From Wikipedia:
The elk or wapiti is one of the largest species within the deer family, Cervidae, and one of the largest terrestrial mammals in North America, as well as Central and East Asia.
