Young Theme #364

youngI went on a little drive today and came across this moose calf.  She (I just have a feeling, ;0)) must have been just left by her mom because she seemed a little bewildered.  She is shedding a lot too so she is a lot lighter in color than she would normally be.  The lightest colored moose I have ever seen in person.  The moose is my favourite Canadian wild animal.  I just love how much character they have.
