The Moose

Moose are the largest members of the deer family, and boy, they're not shy about showing it off! With their tall, muscular bodies, broad and flat antlers and a longer nose than their deer cousins, these 'giants of the forest' are quite a sight! You might spot them near bodies of water where they love to snack on all kinds of vegetation. Don't let their seemingly slow and clumsy movement fool you - moose can run up to 35 miles per hour!

Gorilla vs Moose

Fun Fact: Unlike most deer species, moose are solitary animals and prefer to explore their vast home ranges alone, as if they're on their own little adventure!

Fun Fact: If you see antlers, it's a guy! Only male moose grow antlers, which can spread 6 feet from end to end – nearly the horizontal reach of a concert grand piano!
