Animals?

Have you seen these before? Oh yeah, it calls älg in Swedish or moose in English. We have a lot of älgar (moose) here. Älgar is symbol of Sweden or Scandinavians. I’m not an animal person but I can tell a little bit about them.
 Most of the moose live in the north of Sweden, well there are some in the south too, but more in the north. The sizes is varying depends of the sexes. The males can weigh up to 720kg and 360kg for females. You can easily recognize them because of their horns. As you can see they are very special. I believe they are one of the kindest species on earth.  They are vegetarians (good to know at least).   But not the wolves… Moose have often become the wolves’ meal.



Talking about wolves, we have a lot of wolves here in Sweden too. I like doggies and I like wolves. In hunting seasons people here like hunt to them. I’m really against hunting. The wolves are a little bit bigger than dogs, more or less. Well, there is nothing to talk much about them. They live where ever the forests are.  They are NOT vegetarians, and might attack people when they feel threatened so don’t try to pet them if you see one in the forest.




 Who do you think of when you see this animal? Is it Santa Claus? This animal calls renar or reindeer.  They live far far north of Sweden. I like their horns I think they are much cooler than the moose’ horns. The females can reach to 162-205cm in length and weigh 79-120kg and the males 180-214cm in length and 92-210kg in weight. They live in the big flocks. It’s really cool to have those amazing animals in our country. J
