 Bull MooseBaxter State Park, ME
Its late September and this Moose isn't just out for a stroll. He's looking for a mate. Mating season runs thru September and October and Bulls are much more aggressive during these months. Not a good time to get in a Moose's way!

Moose tracks are roughly 5 to 6 inches long and 4 to 5 inches wide. Much larger than White-tailed deer tracks at about 3 inches long by 2 inches wide. But sometimes Moose calf prints can be confused with large deer. If you think it might be a calf, look for mother Moose's tracks in the area. Also use caution, as Moose mothers aggressively defend their young.

Moose scat is often in this dry pellet form when Moose are feeding on woody material as in this late winter photo. Scat can be a loose pile with pellets hardly showing when Moose are feeding on aquatic plants during the warmer months.
