5 Interesting Facts About Moose!

  • Moose are the largest members of the deer family - a full-grown bull can stand 2.1 metres at the shoulder and weigh over 700kg, making them genuinely enormous animals.
  • Male moose grow an entirely new set of antlers every single year - the largest antlers on record spanned over 2 metres from tip to tip and can weigh up to 20kg, all grown in just 3–4 months.
  • Moose are surprisingly fast in water - they can swim at up to 10km/h and have been known to cross lakes several kilometres wide. Their large, hollow hairs also provide buoyancy.
  • Their distinctive drooping nose isn't just for show - the large, flexible nostrils can close completely when diving to feed on aquatic plants, and the long snout helps warm cold Arctic air before it reaches the lungs.
  • Despite their size, moose can move almost silently through dense forest - their long, splayed hooves allow them to place each foot precisely, making them remarkably stealthy for such enormous animals.
