Moose Calf Moose calf explores taiga forest in Newfoundland's Terra Nova National Park. Weighing up to 1500 pounds, male moose can be as tall as six feet at the shoulder. Their antlers can grow to lengths of six feet and weigh as much as fifty pounds. During breeding season, males can fight fiercely over females but manage to settle most disputes through minor tussles and bluff charges. Moose can often be seen foraging in or near lakes at Grand Teton and Yellowstone National Parks during summer months.
