We began our Arctic Animal month with a lesson about all things related to the moose!!

Although native to Europe and Asia, moose are found throughout Northern hemisphere in Northern Canada and other colder climates.

Moose are also called “elk” and are members of the deer family.

These large mammals are solitary and do not form herds. Although generally slow-moving and sedentary, moose can become aggressive and move quickly if angered or startled.

Using small toy moose, pine cones, artificial grass, rocks, and clay, we created our very own moose habitats!
