Fossil specimens of Irish elk from the Late Pleistocene in Ireland
The collection of Geology and Paleontology at the Vienna Museum of Natural History includes the primitive fossil skeleton of Megaloceros giganteus, an Irish elk discovered in the late Pleistocene (approximately 12000 years ago). The shoulder height of males is about 2.1 meters, and their antlers are the largest known antlers, with a width of up to 4 meters. About 11700 years ago, many other animals from the Ice Age, like the Irish elk, became extinct in Europe.
