Moose

Description:

The largest animal in the deer family. Large ears and a long snout. This is a massive brown mammal with long legs, standing between 5' - 7' at the shoulder. Pictured here is a cow or female moose and in the last two pictures is her calf. Female Moose can weigh as much as 800 lbs, while a large Bull Moose can weigh up to 1,500 lbs and possess an antler rack that spans up to 6' wide.

Habitat:

Prefers forested wetland areas.

Notes:

This is the second time I've seen a cow moose with her calf. Neither of them were a bit concerned with me, but casually walked off as I started snapping pictures.
