It is also called the &#039;&#039;&#039;Tian Shan elk&#039;&#039;&#039; in [[North American English]].<br /> <br /> ==Description==<br /> It is native to the [[Tian Shan Mountains]] in eastern [[Kyrgyzstan]], southeastern [[Kazakhstan]], and North Central [[Xinjiang]] of western [[China]]. It is the largest subspecies of Asian [[wapiti]], both in body size and antlers.<br /> <br /> As a grazing animal, they play an important role in the ecosystem. On the one hand they maintain vegetation growth, and on the other hand are the main food source for predators such as wolves, [[snow leopards]] and brown bears.&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite web |url=https://camcaproject.org/modules/tian-shan-maral/ | title=&#039;&#039;Tian Shan Maral&#039;&#039; | website= camcaproject.org }}&lt;/ref&gt; <br /> ==Conservation==<br /> Around 50,000 individual Tian Shan elk are left in the wild, and they are declining at a rapid rate. China has about 4000 to 5000 individuals in deer farms.<br /> <br /> ==See also==<br /> *[[Altai wapiti]]<br /> *[[Red deer]]<br /> <br /> == References ==<br /> {{Reflist}}<br /> <br /> {{Taxonbar|from=Q1320872}}<br /> <br /> [[Category:Cervus]]<br /> [[Category:Mammals of Central Asia]]<br /> [[Category:Mammals of China]]<br /> [[Category:Biota of Xinjiang]]<br /> [[Category:Tian Shan]]<br /> <br /> <br /> {{eventoedungulate-stub}}</div>
