Moose are native to cold northern regions of the globe. These animals live in the circumpolar boreal forest of the Northern Hemisphere.

This vast geographic range includes Canada, Alaska, and the northern states of America.

Substantial populations also live across Fennoscandia, the Baltic states, Poland, Russia, Mongolia, and Kazakhstan. Cooler, temperate climates and subarctic environments help these massive creatures thrive.

Land vegetation and water plants make up the primary diet. These herbivores spend much of their time browsing on leaves, twigs, and bark. Woody materials like branches and dead wood provide sustenance during the cold winter months.

Female moose give birth to one or two calves. The young stay with their mother for about eighteen months before venturing out alone.
