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:
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. |
