Have you ever experienced the awe of seeing an Alaskan moose? The largest moose species, these creatures can weigh between 317 and 635 kilograms, reaching heights of up to 2 metres at the shoulder. Male moose are called bulls, females are known as cows and their young are referred to as calves. One thing that sets moose apart is their incredible antlers, which are only sported by the males.
