Moose are connectors.<\/h1>\n

As they move from streams to sagebrush, as they munch on willows, and as their bodies return to the soil, moose are intertwined with their environment.<\/p>\n

From a moose’s perspective, learn more about how moose are connectors by scrolling through the videos below.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Magpies sometimes perch on the backs of moose, and it\u2019s a rare treat to watch a bird perched on the back of an animal hundreds of times its size! Magpies will use this as a chance to grab a snack, such as a tick that is riding along on a moose\u2019s neck. Because moose from some populations are especially laden with ticks in late winter, this interspecies interaction can provide magpies with an abundant, albeit gross, food source.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n\n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
