Author Description

Description: Crowned by a vast rack of antlers, the moose is one of the most impressive animals in the wild north country. Though they are the largest members of the deer family, reaching more than six feet tall and weighing up to 1800 pounds, moose are exceptionally shy and solitary. Moose, photographed by Mark Picard, features these elusive and endearing creatures in every season. Notes: Mark Picard is "Mr. Moose." He has more moose on film than almost anyone on the continent. His images have been published by the following premier publications: Ranger Rick, Audubon, Sierra Club, Nature Conservancy, Birder's World, Yankee, and others.
