For a brief moment, the sun pierced through the fog to illuminate these three moose in the frosty tundra of mid-October near Kugluktuk, Nunavut.

Mr. Goggle tells me most loose them by January at the latest :) Father YouTube often pays me visits out here in the wilderness when I need tips on how to do things as well :)

You got me curious about the antler cycle for bull moose here in the tundra. I know they can keep them at least until early winter. I will ask the Elders about it.

Awesome, considering their not rutting and still have their antlers! Here around us none of the Deer species have lost their antlers?
