Thranduil's elk is the great antlered steed ridden by King Thranduil of Mirkwood in Peter Jackson's Hobbit films. Calm and battle-hardened, the elk bore Thranduil through the Battle of Five Armies before being slain by Orc arrows while charging Azog's forces. The mount was created for the trilogy and is non-canonical.
