Excellent swimmers, up to 6 miles per hour.
Adult moose can run as fast as 35 miles per hour. They also happen to be excellent swimmers and can cross large expanses, swimming up to 6 miles per hour for two hours at one time.
Moose weigh 25 to 35 pounds at birth. Calves can run within a few days and swim well within two weeks.
