The elk that you are describing is probably wapiti (Cervus canadensis), a
New
World deer. The Old World elk is Alces alces, a species of moose slightly
smaller than Alces americana, the New World moose.
Since it is a deer, your elk is a logical substitution in European venison
recipes. I wouldn't worry about periodness. I'd cook it and enjoy.
