Look for the antler buds, or the places on either side of the forehead in front of the ears where antlers should've, would've or will be. This is especially helpful if it's a time of year where moose have lost their antlers completely. Presence of antlers in moose is sex-linked, which means only males are capable of having them. You may also notice a moose having furry-like protrusions sticking up from their heads. These are antlers in the process of growing, and also indicative of the sex of the animal.

Basically though, bulls (males) have antlers; cows (females) do not.
