Moose

The moose is the world's largest deer species and one of the animals with the greatest horns. Moose may be found in portions of North America, as well as Poland, Kazakhstan, and Russia, where they are known as elk. Moose, unlike most deer, live alone and only come together to mate during the mating season. Adults range in height from 4.6 to 6.9 feet tall and weigh between 441 and 1,543 pounds.

Only male moose have antlers, which are shaped like twigs and develop in a dendritic pattern. The antlers grow outward from the center of the head, curling upward and expanding outward. The antlers of a mature male moose may reach up to 83 inches in length and weigh up to 40 pounds apiece. Males may use their antlers to struggle with one another for mating rights during the breeding season.
