Do moose eat peanuts?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

We feed birds sunflower seeds and peanuts. Every 5-8 years, when the snow gets to deep, the moose tip the bird feeders on top of themselves and eat as much as they can. So, yes they eat peanuts (and sunflower seeds), if they get a hold of food they can't eat, (one tried to eat suit), they lie down with a tummy ache for a while but move on and survive.

Do moose eat algae?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

In my exploration of moose dietary habits, I've found that while moose are primarily herbivores and graze on various plants like shrubs, grasses, and aquatic vegetation, they are not typically known to consume algae as a significant part of their diet. Moose tend to feed on terrestrial vegetation, especially in forested environments. However, in certain circumstances, moose might inadvertently ingest small amounts of algae if it's present on the plants or aquatic vegetation they consume. Most of their diet consists of woody plants, buds, and aquatic vegetation rather than algae. It's fascinating how the dietary preferences of these majestic creatures contribute to their survival in diverse ecosystems. #MooseDiet #Herbivores #WildlifeFeedingHabits

How does human activity affect a moose?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Human activity can have several negative effects on moose populations. Deforestation and habitat loss reduce their available habitat, making it harder for them to find food and shelter. Human disturbance, such as noise from recreational activities or collisions with vehicles, can stress or injure moose. Additionally, pollution and climate change can disrupt ecosystems and affect the availability of food and water sources for moose.

Does a tiger eats a moose?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Yes, most definitely if the opportunity is presented.

Elk, (Cervus canadiensis) also known as wapiti, are native to North America and possibly parts of Siberia. In Asia, the tiger's current range does not overlap so they would not be a natural predator.

The Moose (Alces alces) is called 'Elk' in Europe. There is some overlap in its range with the current range of the tiger. It would not be inconceivable that properly motivated tiger would attack an adult moose but it would seem unlikely that a tiger would give up its advantage since their defense strategy is to retreat to water and they are very capable of defending themselves. A tiger would almost certainly attack a moose calf if the opportunity was presented.

The Red Deer (Cervus elaphus), also known by a host of names including 'Wapiti' and the 'Bactrian Red Deer'. has a range that extends through central Asia and overlaps some of the tiger's range. Recently, it was determined that it and the North American Wapiti, once thought to be members of the same species, are in reality separate species.

Geist (1998) recommended that C. elaphus and C. canadensis be regarded as distinct species. This is supported by patterns of mtDNA variation as reported by Randi et al.

You may still find people (including myself, prior to researching this) who call this animal the 'Red Elk'.

Are moose bovine?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The scientific name for the moose species is Alces americanus. Since it was not discovered by the English speaking world until the colonization of the western hemisphere, it does not have the same kind of linguistic roots as the word cow. However, based on the species name, I would opt for "American" as the adjectival form.

Can you have babies with a moose?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Sure, but It wouldn't be a very good idea. Moose prefer to be alone and out in the wild. They don't like being pets, as far as I know. Moose can be quite crazy sometimes and it wouldn't be a very good experience. (they COULD kill you......) It will be very hard to train a Moose though, so I won't even bother trying to get one.

PS: If you DO have one, GOOD LUCK trying to make it behave well..

However, I absolutely LOVE Moose, but still, I wouldn't even dare to have as a pet.

Are there moose in Arizona?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

There are no moles in the traditional sense, meaning there are no placental moles. However, there are two marsupial moles, completely unique to Australia and found nowhere else in the world. These marsupial moles are more correctly known by their native names of itjaritjari (southern marsupial mole) and kakarratul (northern marsupial mole).
