Moose Puppet

In spite of his oversized nose, knobby knees and sprawling crown of antlers, the moose still manages to look majestic as he lumbers across subarctic terrain. This MOOSE puppet, with his soft plush fur and serious expression, promises to be the perfect answer to a little northern exposure. Hand enters from underneath.

The moose (North America) or elk (Eurasia), Alces alces, is a member of the New world deer subfamily and is the largest and heaviest extant species in the deer family. Moose are distinguished by the broad, palmate (open-hand shaped) antlers of the males; other members of the deer family have antlers with a dendritic ("twig-like") configuration. Moose typically inhabit boreal forests and temperate broadleaf and mixed forests of the Northern Hemisphere in temperate to subarctic climaates.
