"Elk Spotted In South Carolina For The First Time Since The 1700s"

"South Carolina’s newest social media star is young, friendly, and could weigh up to 700 pounds.

It’s a bull elk that likely wandered from North Carolina across state lines, the first time an elk has been spotted in the woodlands of South Carolina in more than 200 years. But wildlife biologists are warning the public not to be fooled by the bull’s friendliness, after pictures surfaced online of residents near it and feeding it.

This is another reminder by conservationists that wild animals are, in fact, wild, and that they must be regarded with caution for their safety and yours."
