What are habits of a moose?

The 'moose' or 'elk' is a large species in the deer family. Moose have distinct antlers with palmation, with large, broad tines that are more noticeable in North American moose than Scandinavian elk. Moose are diurnal. They are active during the day, living in their boreal or mixed deciduous forests where they typically make their homes. They are polygamous, with the males breeding with several females during mating season (September - October). Male moose will fight over females, either retreating from a larger opponent, or fighting. Moose are often hunted and wolves, brown bears, and Siberian tigers are known to kill moose. They usually flee from wolves, but can fight back with their powerful hooves. Their nose is sensitive, and wolves will latch onto it to paralyze the moose with pain. Moose typically eat plant material, like fresh leaves and twigs. Some moose are domesticated and moose milk is even sold.

Can a bull moose kill a pack of wolves?

The question depends on the quantity and strength of the wolves, and the strength and health of the bull moose. Usually, a pack of wolves (5 or more wolves) would attack and kill a young moose or an injured moose that is too weak to fight any longer. Wolves always look for weak animals for them to kill, like an injured moose. Even if the wolves attack a healthy, strong moose, the wolves would win but they would get some members injured. Bull moose can sometimes drive off a pack of wolves if they are large and the wolves were not eager to fight down it. But bull moose can also kill or fend off a pack of wolves if they were strong and healthy enough to do so. Bull moose are pretty aggressive and powerful enough to kill grizzly bears or brown bears, which makes them quite dangerous enough to fight off a pack of wolves. Ten or eleven strong wolves are enough to bring down a healthy, strong rutting bull moose if they avoid the moose's hooves/antlers, and gave painful bites to the hamstrings.
