Images of Canada - Moose (3)

Hand-crafted in Canada, each pewter figurine sits atop a piece of genuine amethyst crystal. Souvenirs like these will be appreciated by both men and women. Each piece comes on a card describing the animal or symbol.

The majestic yet loveable moose, which so often represents Canada is a symbol of longevity, wisdom, confidence and self-esteem. This largest member of the deer family reaches weights of 320kg. The name originates from the Algonquin "musse’ or "wood eater’. Their diet consists of leaves, twigs and water plants. Moose are strong swimmers and are known to dive to depths of eighteen feet in search of underwater vegetation.
