They are also used for riding. Young Elnük have small fuzzy coats and the beginnings of what would later be their horns and tusks when they reach adulthood. Adult Male Elnük, or bulls, have large swirling horns and curved tusks, while adult female Elnük only have tusks.

Elnüks usually live in large groups known as troops. Shepherds herd their troop to graze on the slopes during the hotter seasons. Beside their thick coats, the Elnüks are usually a primary source of meat as well as the main currency of many tribes.
