Natural History of Moose

Moose are the largest deer in North America. They are herbivores, preferring to eat such species as willow, cottonwood, fir, and others. Moose feed in water during summer, eating aquatic plants found there.

Moose tracks are bigger than elk tracks. When running, moose tracks often show dewclaws, as do other members of the deer family.
