Description: 20178R "A BANQUET FOR A MONARCH"The Canadian Moose...World's Largest Antlered MammalThe mighty moose has been scaled in excess of 1200 pounds with a rack spread of 64 inches. A vegetarian, he eats the twigs and shrubs of the forest, but his favourite "dining room" is the lake shallows, and his delicacy, the root of the water-lily. Published by ALEX WILSON PUBLICATIONSManufactured by Cavalier, Dryden, Ontario, CanadaA 100% CANADIAN PRODUCT.................. The Western moose (Alces alces andersoni) is a subspecies of moose that inhabits boreal forests and mixed deciduous forests in the Canadian Arctic, western Canadian provinces and a few western sections of the northern United States and it was introduced to New Zealand. It is the second largest North American subspecies of moose, second to the Alaskan moose. This subspecies is prey to timber wolves and bears. Male Western moose are aggressive during mating season (autumn and winter) and may injure or kill with provocation. Moose seek shallow lakes, ponds and wetlands where they feed on aquatic plants for the mineral sodium concentrated in these emergent and submerged plants. The Western moose inhabits British Columbia, eastern Yukon, Northwest Territories, southwestern Nunavut, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, western Ontario, the upper peninsula of Michigan, northern Wisconsin, northern Minnesota, and northeastern North Dakota. Additionally, Parks Canada transferred eighteen western moose from Elk Island National Park to Nova Scotia's Cape Breton Highlands National Park between 1947 and 1949 for population increase. Cape Breton Island's moose are descendants of these western moose. They were also introduced to New Zealand's Fiordland National Park.
