Does anyone else cringe when the words Elk and buck or doe are used in the
same sentence?  Can we please call boy elk 'bull' and girl elk 'cow'?  

I just have these awful visions when I read stuff about Bull Elk mating with 
does.  :-)  

Just out of curiosity, does anyone know the right term for male bears?  I
would wager a guess on Boar, since females are Sows, but anyone know for sure?
