Alces alces! Or Moose!

Moose rule! It's a fact. But to give you some more credible facts....Moose belong to the deer family. In Europe they're known as elk. They are the largest members of the deer family and live in Siberia, the Baltic, Northern Canada and Alaska. (evidently they must like the cold!) They are Big, growing up to 7 or 8 ft. at the shoulder and weighing well over 1000 lbs. They are great swimmers and they snort a lot. (okay the snorting part I made up!) But hey, I bet you learned something about moose right?? Well if not *snort* to you!

So here are some links to other moose pages: (which I hope to add to)
