Goose is Geese, so why is Moose not Meese?
Show Notes

This week’s episode is all about the Moose. But why is the plural not Meese?  Really, someone, please explain it to us. The moose (what we call it in North America) or elk (what they call it everywhere else) are the largest member of the deer family, and a bull’s antlers can be up to seven feet long. 

But first: 

Better Than Human stands with the Asian Community, condemning any violence against Asians and Asian Americans. Racism and bigotry have no place in this world. #StopAsianHate

Then guess who’s sadly back in town? It’s Murder Hornets…. Yes, they never went away, but it’s spring, the Queens waking up, getting ready to leave the mother hive and start their own nest and we must stop their spread in North America. If you live on the west coast and see one, please report it at https://agr.wa.gov/hornets

Moose are cold-adapted mammals with thickened skin, and heat-retaining coats. Moose can be found mostly in Canada, the Northern States in the US, and Russia. Since the 1990s, moose populations have been declining in much of temperate North America, but they remain stable in Arctic and subarctic regions, this is most likely due to the results of climate change. Moose are generally slow and mild tempered, but can become aggressive, and move quickly if angered or startled. Like any wild animal, just leave them be. 

Listen now to learn about the Moose, not Meese, the giant mammals of Northern World.
