Elk, called elk calves as babies, are a large species of herbivore that appear in herds. They have a muffalo's tolerance to subzero temperatures so they are quite comfortable living in the cold boreal forest, tundra, and cold bog biomes. Male and female elk can be distinguished by the presence or lack of antlers, respectively.

Production[edit]

Female elk can be milked once every 1 days, producing 11 milk.

Summary[edit]

Elk are pen animals. Once tamed, pen animals cannot and do not need to be trained any further. But if left outside of a pen or caravan hitching spot, pen animals will eventually roam outside your colony. Making a caravan is not required to tie animals to a caravan hitching spot.

A female elk can be milked for up to 11 units of milk per day, depending on your pawn's Animal Gather Yield. Milking an animal takes 400 ticks (6.67 secs) of work, regardless of the amount of milk produced, and only modified by the Animal Gather Speed of the handler.

Analysis[edit]

Elk's meat, leather, and milk yields and their hunger rate are identical to that of the yak. However, compared to the yak, elk are wilder and cannot carry cargo, making them strictly inferior to yaks as tamable animals. If you don't need to caravan out, they are mostly identical if tamed.

Milking[edit]

Female elk produce 11 per day, or 0.55 nutrition in milk per day. A elk consumes 0.86 nutrition per day. This results in a nutrition efficiency of 64% from milk alone (or 12.79 per day per 1 nutrition consumed). They are better for milk than dromedaries or caribou.

Training[edit]

This animal can be trained as follows:

Guard:
Attack:
Rescue:
Haul:

*As of version 1.1.2610, all animals can be tamed. The percentage of likelihood of success depends on factors such as the Animals Wildness Percentage, Pawn Handling Skill, and others. More information can be found on the animals page.

↑ Coverage determines the chance to hit this body part. It refers to the percentage of the super-part that this part covers, before its own sub-parts claim their own percentage. For example, if the base coverage of the super-part is 100%, and the coverage of the part is 20%, 20% of hits would hit the part, and 80% the super-part. If the part had its own sub-part with 50% coverage, the chances would be 10% sub-part, 10% part, 80% super part.
↑ Target Chance is the actual chance for each part to be be selected as the target when each part's coverage has been taken into account(I.E. Neck covers 7.5% of Torso but Head covers 80% of Neck so it actually has only a 1.5% chance to be selected). This is not pure hit chance, as different damage types propagate damage in different ways. See that page for details.
↑ Note that capacities can affect other capacities in turn. Only the primary effect is listed. See specific pages for details.
↑ This is the part that everything else connects to to be considered 'connected'.
↑ If Moving drops below 16% a pawn cannot move.
↑ A Blunt/Poke attack with cooldown of 2s. The actual Hoof is unrelated
