Portrait of a large bull moose scanning the forest at the beginning of the rut season, Alaska, USA
A large bull moose, Alces alces, scans the boreal forest as the "rut," or autumn breeding seasin begins in early September. Southcentral Alaska. As the rut progresses, bulls will all but stop eating, focusing instead on breeding activities. Moose range from the Stikine River in Southeast Alaska all the way to the Colville River on the Arctic Slope. They are especially abundant on timberline plateaus; along the major rivers of Southcentral and Interior Alaska; and in recently burned areas that have generated dense stands of willow, aspen, and birch shrubs

Autumn's Awakening - A Majestic Moose on High Alert
EDITORS COMMENTS
As the early autumn sun rises over Southcentral Alaska's boreal forest, a majestic bull moose stands tall, scanning his surroundings with an air of quiet intensity. The start of the rut season has begun, and this large male is fully focused on preparing for breeding activities that will soon consume all his energy.
With antlers reaching towards the sky like nature's own crown jewels, this magnificent creature surveys its domain from a vantage point only it can claim. Its piercing gaze takes in every detail of its habitat - the rustling leaves, the swaying birch trees, and the lush undergrowth that will soon become his primary source of sustenance.
As we capture this moment in time through Ken Marsh's lens, we are reminded of the awe-inspiring beauty found in Alaska's wilderness. The moose's rugged grandeur is a testament to its ability to thrive in one of North America's most unforgiving environments. This photograph invites us to step into the forest and experience the majesty that lies just beyond our reach - a world where nature reigns supreme, and wonder waits around every bend.
