And now for something slightly bigger. Two elk (not moose

), Alces alces. There was a third standing a couple of meters behind them, but you can't see it.

Isn't an elk the same animal as a moose?

Stefan-A · 03-04-2007, 01:14 AM

Yes and no (mostly yes). The same species, elk (Alces alces), is called moose in North America. There, the word elk refers to the wapiti (Cervus canadensis).

Well, what do you think?

Aedes communis, I think.

Yours is a very nice picture, though.
