Happy Saint Patrick’s Day from the Museum’s Irish Elk (Megaloceros giganteus)! Weighing around 1,500 pounds and rivaling a large moose in size, this extinct species is one of the largest known deer. Its enormous antlers, some of which reached a 13-foot spread, were used in ritualized combat between males. While originally discovered in bog deposits in Ireland, the Irish elk also lived in grassy terrain on the European mainland. The species became extinct some 10,000 years ago, possibly because of loss of habitat. See this massive deer up close in the Hall of Advanced Mammals.
