About
A young moose is already about as heavy as an adult human after just a few months of life.
Moose are born weighing only 25 to 35 pounds (11 to 16 kg), but they gain weight rapidly during their first summer. At this stage, a calf is already about as heavy as a full-grown female white-tailed deer. Fully grown adult moose can eventually reach up to ten times this weight, with large males exceeding 1,200 pounds (540 kg).
From Wikipedia
The moose or elk is the world's tallest, largest and heaviest extant species of deer and the only extant species in the genus Alces. It is also the tallest, and the second-largest, land animal in North America, falling short only to the American bison in body mass.
