Moose, Algonquin Park, Canada
Moose are the largest of all the deer species. Males are immediately recognizable by their huge antlers, which can spread 6 feet. Moose are so tall that they prefer to browse higher grasses and shrubs because lowering their heads to ground level can be difficult. In winter they eat shrubs and pinecones, but they also scrape snow with their large hooves to clear areas for browsing on mosses and lichens.
