The Manitoban elk (Cervus canadensis manitobensis) is a subspecies of elk found in the Midwestern United States (specifically North Dakota) and southern regions of the Canadian Prairies (specifically Manitoba, Saskatchewan, and north-central Alberta).

[3][4][5] In 2001–2002, a breeding population of 52 Manitoban elk was also introduced into the Cataloochee valley of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park in North Carolina to replace a population of Eastern elk which had gone extinct over 100 years prior.

[7] Compared to the Rocky Mountain elk, it is larger in body size, but has smaller antlers.

[8] The study of Blood and Lovaas (1966) gave the whole weights of 19 Manitoban Elk collected in Riding Mountain National Park, Manitoba.

The adults males ranged in weight from 634 lbs or 287,5 kg [a 3 years 1 month old bull killed in June] to 1053 lbs or 477,6 kg [a 8 years 7 months old bull killed in December].
