Life and death are part of the circle of life. Moose calves can actually walk a few hours after their birth, an amazing feature of nature helping them to survive the dangers of predators they are exposed to. This image is dedicated to one of the biggest moose enthusiasts ever - Walter S.Griggs, Jr.. He was a great man, who passed away and left a big void. Listen to the moose, Walter!
