Michigan elk herd grows near Gaylord in Pigeon River area
Michigan's elk population now numbered 600 to 700 still concentrates in the Pigeon River state forest northeast of Gaylord. The herd began in 1918 with seven animals near Vanderbilt and has since expanded mostly within a Gaylord to Indian River corridor, with some animals near Black Lake and Boyne Falls. Conservation officials distributed treated salt to the range to address mineral deficiencies linked to blindness and disease, which have become rare in recent years.
