Enjoying A Vegetarian Lunch
|
This majestic animal was spotted south of Provost by Cathy Bogen © who had her camera with her. The moose was contentedly munching on brush during the summer. The animals prefer muskegs, brushy meadows, small groves of aspen or coniferous trees, especially if near or adjoining water like lakes, ponds or streams. As largest members of the deer family in the world, bulls can weigh in at over 450 kilograms (1,000 pounds) and stand 2.3 metres (7.5 feet) at the shoulder. Cows average about 350 kilograms (770 pounds).
