    1. It was either docile or sleepy. My presence did not bother him at all and I kept my distance.Thanks Posted 2 years ago
      1. Nice! I once saw a mother moose with her calf feeding in a wetland. I was standing maybe 5 meters from them. She looked at me and then went right back to eating. Totally calm and unconcerned, thankfully! Posted 2 years ago

The moose or elk is a member of the New World deer subfamily and is the largest and heaviest extant species in the deer family. Most adult male moose have distinctive broad, palmate antlers; most other members of the deer family have antlers with a dendritic configuration.
