What is Moose facts?
Moose are the largest living deer, occupying northern forests and wetlands.
Anatomy, behavior and diet
Long legs help in snow and marshes; a broad muzzle gathers aquatic plants and twigs. Males grow and shed antlers seasonally, while females usually lack them. Antlers differ from permanent horns.
Habitat and conservation
Food, heat and parasites affect distribution. Moose can be dangerous near roads and calves; size does not imply slowness. Local populations may respond differently to climate change.
