Moose 101

The Magnificent Moose

Moose are found throughout northern North America and Eurasia. Their range coincides with that of circumpolar boreal forests. In North America they occur throughout Alaska, Canada, the northeastern United States and as far south as the Rocky Mountains in Colorado. In Eurasia they are found throughout northern Europe and eastwards through Siberia and Mongolia. They are generally found near streams or ponds where there are willows.

Moose eat twigs, bark, roots and the shoots of woody plants, especially willows and aspens. In the warm months, moose feed on water plants, water lilies, pondweed, horsetails, bladderworts, and bur-reed. In winter, they browse on conifers, such as balsam fir, and eat their needle-like leaves. They require 20kg of food per day but their stomachs, when full, can weigh up to 65 kg. Most of a moose's time is spent eating. Their distinctive snout has nostrils that close automatically as they dip their heads underwater for food.

Your one stop shopping for all things moose and more..... I keep finding more really cool 'moose stuff' bookmark and come back often.
