Moose reproduce through sexual reproduction, with the male moose (bull) mating with the female moose (cow). Breeding typically occurs in the fall, and after a gestation period of about 8 months, a single calf is born in the spring. The calf stays with its mother for about a year before becoming independent.

No, a moose does not moo like a cow. Instead, moose make a variety of sounds, including grunts, bellows, and a distinctive, low-frequency call known as a "bellow." These vocalizations are used for communication, especially during mating season or to signal distress.
Cows can get pregnant through the process of mating with a bull, where the bull inseminates the cow. This can happen naturally through natural mating or artificially through artificial insemination by a qualified professional.
Standing heat can last from 2 to 6 hours. The mating process itself only lasts for a couple seconds, but a cow can be bred repeatedly during this phase by several bulls, if there's more than one bull in your cowherd.
Yes.
A cow can be and is often milked all year round. There is no particular season that is best to milk a cow, unless your cattle-raising practices surround the seasons, and not the more conventional year-round milking. Therefore, if it is that, then the best season to milk a cow is the season where forage and grasses are at their highest quality, because then you can get the best milk without having to go ahead and harvest and store feeds for your cow[s].

Cystic ovaries may cause the heifer of cow to not be able to become pregnant, it may also cause the female to have irregular oestrous cycles, or persistent oestrous.
Moose are solitary animals, except for when mating or when the cow is caring for her calf or calves.

Bulling. Sometimes there's a cow in heat that all the bulls want (applies only to herds where producers run more than one bull in), and mistakes can be made if the mating gets a bit intense between that one cow and multiple bulls who are all too intent on getting her bred. It is also found to be done in steers, usually when they are crowded, but also if there is a weaker animal in the herd that the more dominant steers feel the need to pick on all the time.
The mating season for moose, known as the rut, typically occurs in the fall, around September to October. During this time, male moose, or bulls, will engage in displays of dominance and vocalizations to attract females, or cows. After a courtship period, the bull and cow will mate, resulting in a gestation period of about eight months, after which the cow gives birth to one or two calves in the spring. The mating process is largely dictated by the competition among bulls for access to receptive females.
