Title:
Moose
Caption:
Here we see a cow Moose (Alces alces) with her
two calves on the Yukon Flats NWR. The third largest
conservation area in the National Wildlife Refuge System,
the 9 million acre Yukon Flats National Wildlife Refuge
is located in eastern interior Alaska, about 100 miles
north of Fairbanks. It includes the Yukon Flats, a vast
wetland basin bisected by the Yukon River. Moose are
the most sought after game animals hunted the refuge.
The water-rich habitats that make up most of the refuge's
land, as well as the new growth encouraged by regular
fire and flood, provide ideal conditions for these large
ungulates.
