Elrey the Elk

Elrey was named after Elrey Jeppesen, an American aviation pioneer noted for his contributions to the field of air navigation. He founded the Jeppesen company and was selected by our friends at Denver International Airport.

Elk antlers can grow an inch a day and can weigh up to 40lbs. The more sunlight they are exposed to, the faster they grow! Elk bugle is a form of communication used to attract the ladies; it is a combination of whistling and roaring at the same time. Elk are one of the largest species of deer in the world; a male elk can weigh up to 730lbs! If you see one in the wild, give it plenty of space, as elk can become protective. They have been known to charge and gore humans who threaten their territory.
