New Born Moose Calf Under Mom's Watchful Eyes - In Explore

This cow lost a calf to a bear a few years ago. For a time she was pretty intense to be around.

But, she has adjusted and is now a very calm mom that is easy for me to work with.

The calf was still pretty wobbly on its legs this morning.

But, they grow up quickly.

I saw it mouthing some of the green leaves on the bushes around where they were bedded this morning and expect it will be trying to eat some by tomorrow.
