California has Rocky Mountain, Roosevelt, and Tule elk.
Within the native California prairie were large herds of tule elk (Cervus elaphus nannodes), pronghorn (Antilocapra americana), and perhaps mule deer (Odocoileus hemionus; Schmidt 1991, Schoenherr 1992; Clark 2004; Wilbur 2004).
Except for the Roosevelt's Elk of the coastal Pacific Northwest and the smaller Tule elk of California, North America's primary elk herds make their living today in the vast national forests, wilderness areas and national parks of the Rocky Mountain states and provinces where grassy meadows, big timber and mountain streams and lakes provide all they need to flourish.
