Quote, paraphrase, and citation #2

Moose are large even-toed herbivorous mammals which feed up on birch and aspen twigs, horsetail, sedges, roots, pond weeds and grasses. Moose eat leaves, twigs, buds and the bark of some woody plants, as well as lichens, aquatic plants and some of the taller herbaceous land plants. Moose can be seen eating during the day and night, but they are usually out at dawn and dusk. Moose can actually feed under water.

Moose are huge herbivores! Moose generally feed on birch/aspen twigs, horestail, sedges, roots, pond weeds, and grasses. They also enjoy dining on leaves, twigs, budsm and the bark off of trees and woody plants, lichens, aquatic plant life, and some larger land plants.  In most photographs you will see the Moose out wading in the water, they are likely to be eating and not taking a "Chiller".  Moose mostly feed at both dusk and dawn. So, these gigantic mammals turned out to be gentle giants after all.
