Golden Bear Monarchs Elk FarmEstablished 2003 | Owners Richard Spanton, Richard Spanton Jr & Saundra Spanton
Our elk reside on 180 acres of lush pasture in beautiful, Southern Wisconsin. Since 2003, we have grown from 9 to 90 elk, adding several world class genetics to our herd. As a result, GBM Elk Farm has won from 1st to 5th place in several hard antler classes at the annual NAEBA international antler competition. Our farming heritage spans several generations consisting of raising pigs, cattle and grain. I along with my Mother and Father Richard & Saundra Spanton and my wife Chrissie, own and operate GBM Elk Farm.
My Grandpa Dave, helps with the farm on a daily basis and Matt Spanton, my brother, lends a hand with seasonal projects such as, cutting antler, calving, and building fence. We are a family driven and motivated farm. Our goals are to continue the process of creating greater genetics in our elk herd. We also encourage and promote the elk farming industry.
