Moose can dive almost 20 feet (6 m) underwater and can hold their breath for a full minute!
Moose need to eat a huge amount of plants each day and sometimes during colder weather, there isn't enough food around to satisfy them. They are natural-born swimmers and diving down to the bottom of a pond lets them access a ton of plant material that few other animals can get to! #funfactfriday
