What is the different about the antlers of a caribou and a moose?
A moose is a large animal, about the same size as a horse. Moose feed on aquatic life in ponds, so they have long necks with a scruffy beard that hangs from the front of the neck (on both male and female) moose. Moose are usually a dark brown color. Male moose have small antlers that eventually grow in paddle shapes. These paddles can grow to be over 50 inches wide. Moose antlers fall off before winter, and female moose don't have antlers. Caribou are somewhere in size between deer and elk. Large caribou tend to be about the size of elk, while young caribou are barely bigger than deer. Caribou are light brown, with white patches on their necks and buttocks. Male and female caribou both grow small antlers when they are young. Older male caribou grow very large, high antlers with a lot of branches. Older female caribou grow modest antlers.

How can you tell if a moose is a male or female?
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.
How much do moose antlers weigh?
Moose antlers can weigh between 20-40 pounds, with larger bull moose having heavier antlers than females or younger males. The weight of the antlers can vary depending on the age, health, and genetics of the moose.
