Moose are a large animal living in northern North America as well as northern Europe and Asia. They are related to deer, but are distinguished by their much larger size and their unique flat, rather than branching, antlers. Unlike deer, moose are largely solitary animals who do not live and travel in herds. However, vocalizations are commonly heard when female moose (called “cows”) are communicating with their calves or other moose. This common sound is a type of low grunt.

While moose are not predators, they can be highly aggressive if angered or startled. Aggressive reactions are particularly common during mating season in the autumn, when bulls often fight other bulls in competition for female mating partners. A louder, more aggressive grunt can be heard from bulls during this type of confrontation.

Mating season also brings a particularly strange and eerie vocalization – the moose mating call. Cows during mating season typically make a range of calls designed to attract bulls. These sounds can be a longer version of a grunt, with variations in the length and sequence of the grunts. Due to the instinctual impulse of male moose to respond to this call, it is often used by hunters to attract bull moose nearby.
