Wolves, grizzly bears, cougars, sometimes black bears, coyotes and scavengers like ravens and magpies are all animals that will eat moose and a cow if she's already dead or dying.
The proper term is "cow moose," just like the term "bull" in used for male moose as "bull moose."
No. The cow moose would only injure it with its hooves.
A cow moose on the rut, especially one that is defending the young from an enemy, is quite dangerous and powerful enough to injure a pack of wolves. Two wolves are good at killing animals that are bigger than themselves, but the cow moose has those hooves and a strong head that could kill the two wolves. The hooves would stomp or trample the two wolves to death if the two wolves do not escape fast. Even if one wolf can distract the moose on the front, and the other can go on the back to rip out the hamstrings, a cow moose would charge at them and knock them to death. In the fight, the cow moose would win.
Possibly, but in most cases a bear would get injured than killed if it messed with a cow moose, especially one that has some calves to protect.
A moose cow is a female moose, which moose are a part of the deer family. However, the deer family (Cervids) are distantly related to the bovine family, under the Family Bovidae.
