Spotted by JuliaM in The Guardian:
Police are searching for suspected rustlers who stole six fully grown elks from a farm in Somerset.
Officers believe the thieves may have used dogs to round the large beasts up and must have had a sizeable lorry. They are particularly keen to speak to anyone who has been offered cuts of elk meat – or even an actual elk.
Fortunately, farmer Paul Richards managed to stop a herd of bison, which roam in the same fields as the elk, from escaping after a fence was cut.
"If they had got out it could have been a catastrophe," said Paul Richards, who raises elk, bison and wild boar for their meat at Woodentop farm, near West Coker.

If this gets out THERE WILL be another disaster.
I had to check it really was Woodentop farm. I never know with you (:
SB, it will and there will be.
AKH, yes, the article was a gift which kept on giving with no need for embellishment.
I've just looked at the Guardian article and for some reason, they've headed it with a picture of a red deer.
B, yes I too struggle with this whole deer - red deer -reindeer - elk style racism. They're all cute and they all taste nice.
