Zoology / fauna selvatica
English term or phrase: elk
Take part in a life-changing ice-driving adventure in Sweden.
A guided snowmobile safari through frozen lakes and forest tracks is the perfect way to relax after the intensity of the morning's action.
You may spot wildlife such as elk, moose and lynx in their natural environment.

So che "elk" può significare "alce" o "wapiti". Il wapiti però non vive in Svezia.
Come posso differenziare i termini "moose" ed "elk" in italiano?
