Mohlman Elk Farm

Mohlman Elk Farm, elk, Ayr, NE, in Adams County and the central prairies near Hastings, raises elk with an emphasis on health and temperament. Eric and Kim Mohlman have more than ten years of experience breeding elk and maintain membership in the Nebraska Elk Breeders Association while adhering to recommended veterinary screening for chronic wasting disease and herd health. The family provides year-round access to nutrient-rich forage and clean water, and animals benefit from covered shelter during harsh winter months.

Their pasture-based program ensures the herd grazes across rolling prairies, and calves are socialized to human presence from an early age. The farm’s focus on low-stress handling and natural forage reflects a commitment to animal welfare and sound genetics. Several animals from the Mohlman herd have been selected for regional agricultural shows, a testament to their consistent herd management and the family’s deep ties to Nebraska’s ranching heritage.
