Moose by: Sandra and Bernd Augustin Moose: The moose is the largest of the Elk family.  It can reach a height of 2.35 m (7.7 ft) at the shoulders, and weight 825 kg (1820 lb).  The antlers, which can attain a spread of 1.5 m (5 ft), are shed each year after mating season.  The moose is an excellent swimmer.
Chipmunk by: Sandra and Bernd Augustin Chipmunk: When feeding on nuts, seeds, birds' eggs, and insects, the chipmunk uses its forepaws to manipulate and turn its food.  While foraging, the chipmunk stores food in its cheek pouches until it returns safely to its burrow.  Chipmunks' sounds are a loud "chip" and a rapid trill.
