A moose can move it's eyes and detect motion almost behind it without turning it's head. It's nose is also an effective tool. Researchers suggest that because the moose's nostrils are far apart, the may give it unusual ability to pinpoint the location of objects on a three dimensional scale.
Moose calves, described by individuals writer as "ridiculously cute," tend to be curious and carefree. Their mothers, called cows, protect them by providing tender and loyal care.
The moose is a very strong and wild animal. If you happen to see one in the wild, be respectful and give it plenty of space. Keeping your distance is especially vital when there are young calves nearby. Be assured, however, that even from a safe distance, you will be amazed while gazing at this peculiar giant of the forest.
