Elk, Pa.’s largest wild animal, have become a tourism boom in the northwest part of the state Jason Nark, The Philadelphia Inquirer © TOM GRALISH/The Philadelphia Inquirer/TNS An elk warning traffic sign outside Benezette March 2, 2021. BENEZETTE, PA. In rural Elk County, a mile from from the $12 million Elk Country Visitors Center, a small herd of elk munched grass beside a new coffee shop called Elk Life. They were mostly females, known as cows, with a lone, young bull nearby that sported two thin antlers called spikes. Some elk sat. Some stood. All of them were massive, some three times the size of whitetail deer, and none cared about the car idling a few feet away. Inside the store, a former Catholic church that features a large painting of a bespectacled elk on its exterior, owner Eric Blythe, 43, said he opened in August, and quickly filled the space with elk shirts, stuffed animals, even elk masks.
