Moose Eating Buckbean

May 13, 2018 | Uncategorized

  • Moose Eating Buckbean is a video I took in Glacier Bay National Park in mid-April 2018.
  • I suspect most of what it is eating is Buckbean (Menyanthes trifoliata)
  • To learn more about moose in Alaska look at http://www.adfg.alaska.gov/index.cfm?adfg=moose.main
  • For information about the nutritional value of Buckbean look at this paper on The Value of Aquatic Plants for Moose
  • The moose was designated the “official Alaska land mammal” in 1998
