Both Roosevelt and Rocky Mountain elk are native to Oregon with the latter found in the eastern part of the state. These Roosevelt elk were photographed only a few miles outside Florence. Twenty miles south of Florence, in Reedsport, is the Dean Creek Elk Viewing Area, only a few miles east of Reedsport on Hwy. 38, where elk can be viewed grazing in a thousand-acre preserve.
