To reach low-growing plants or to drink from shallow pools, the moose must kneel. The moose is the largest of the deer. Elks are another name for moose. Mooses are generally solitary, but during mating season bulls battle for cows, and their roars may be heard for great distances. Once threatened with extinction, a ban on indiscriminate hunting has saved this endangered species. The moose inhabits forests in Siberia, Sweden, Norway, and the Baltic region, and wooded areas of Canada and the northern United States.

Its name, stag-moose, refers to the fact that it looks much like a cross between an elk and a moose. If you had been around to see one alive, you might have thought it looked like a stilt-legged moose with the face of an elk and very complex palmate antlers. Palmate antlers are shaped like the palm of a hand, i.e. they have large flat areas and thinner projections. Modern moose ( Alces alces ) have palmate antlers; however, the stag-moose had more complex antlers than the modern moose. The stag-moose is found in deposits that indicate it probably preferred mires and other wetlands environments such as spruce parklands. This habitat is similar to that preferred by m Read More Go to Site UK Shopper Online - The online shopping directory, advice and information centre Votes:0 3 Phones 3 Broadband Additions Direct Argos Boots Comet Debenhams Insurance Jewellary John Lewis Littlewoods Extra Marks and Spencer Shop Asino Woolworths Loan Desk 1000s of searchable products Your Rights when buying online Trading Standards advice leaflets Advice for consumers from the DTi E2save Mobiles 3 Mobile Ancestral Collections Mobile-shop Micro Direct TomTom Go UK Shopper Online Shopping Directory Have you ever used a search engines to find an online UK product or supplier, only for them to turn up hundreds of pages, many of them for irrelevant or overseas based companies?
