A bull moose foraging through the green undergrowth, Quebec

Not one to hurry, a bull moose moves with steady purpose—and for good reason. As part of the North American moose population native to Canada, these animals are well adapted to long winters and short growing seasons. Their diet shifts with availability: in summer, they browse fresh leaves, shrubs and aquatic plants; in winter, they rely more on woody material like twigs and bark.
