Collection: Moose - Summer

In summer, moose ( Alces alces ) roam freely in the humid forests, swamps and riparian zones of Quebec. This season is marked by the abundance of food: foliage, buds, aquatic plants and shrubs, which it consumes in large quantities to replenish its reserves. Females raise their calves, often hidden in tall grass or thickets, while males begin to develop their antlers, covered with nourishing velvet. Moose are excellent swimmers and do not hesitate to immerse themselves in ponds to feed or escape biting insects. Their behavior remains relatively solitary. This is a good time for observation, especially at dawn or dusk. They embody the tranquility and power of Quebec's summer wildlife. Moose are also an important cultural and economic symbol in several regions of Quebec, particularly for Indigenous communities and lovers of the great outdoors.
