Moose

The Moose is a species of large deer native to the boreal forests and temperate broadleaf forests of the Northern Hemisphere. They are known for their distinctive antlers, which can grow up to six feet in length, and their tough hooves, which enable them to traverse rough terrain. Moose feed on vegetation, including leaves, twigs, and bark, and are active both day and night.
