Deep in the Alaska woods, this big bull moose browses in a Denali meadow. Bull moose are often solitary, except during the fall rut when mating takes place. In Alaska, moose often weigh over 1,500 pounds and stand over seven feet tall. The moose is the largest member of the deer family and the largest moose ever recorded was taken in the Yukon weighing an incredible 1,800 pounds.
Several bison cross the Madison River in Yellowstone National Park. The area provides an opportune location for wandering buffalo.
Dall sheep typically frequent the open alpine ridges, meadows and mountainsides with extremely rugged “escape terrain” in the immediate vicinity. Male Dall sheep are called rams and have massive curling horns, whereas ewes have shorter, slightly curved horns. Rams’ horn clashing is a means of establishing social order.
