"Outdoor artist Joe Goodman is proud to release this limited edition titled "King of the North Woods". Standing close to 7 feet high at the shoulder, the bull moose is North America's largest land mammal. Mostly solitary by nature, these noble animals can grow to weigh nearly 1,800 pounds. The name moose is derived from the Algonquian Indian name moz, which loosely translates to "twig eater". A full-grown moose has few enemies, but a pack of wolves can still pose a threat, especially to females with calves. European rock drawings and cave paintings depict moose having been hunted since the Stone Age. Valued for their exceptional meat, Henry David Thorough once wrote that "moose taste like tender beef, with perhaps more flavour." Ranging from eastern Maine to western Alaska, the moose has truly become an iconic symbol of our Northern American wilderness."
