Moose have a hump on their back due to the large muscle mass located over their shoulders, which helps support their heavy head and long legs. This muscle structure is essential for their ability to navigate through dense forests and snow. The hump also plays a role in their overall body mechanics, allowing them to efficiently move and forage for food.
