King of the Canadian Wilderness

Description

Moose are one of the largest land mammals in Canada and a symbol of ruggedness and endurance. This particular moose is known as Watson. In this shot, he is roaming his protected territory at the Yukon Wildlife Preserve. He emerged from the bush as I was observing another juvenile moose. The size and majesty of these animals can't be fully appreciated until seen in person.
