A moose calf and its mother eat crab apples and branches from a tree at an Anchorage, Alaska home Wednesday, Jan. 17, 2007. Deep mountain snow usually drives moose to seek lower ground in Anchorage each winter but the snow in town this year is too deep even for the stilt-legged animals. So they're going where they'd rather not, choosing major roads, plowed sidewalks and groomed trails to sidestep the great mounds piling up in neighborhoods and greenbelts during a remarkably snowy month in Alaska's largest city.

A moose cow walks through a wooded area near Strawberry Road recently. A calf wandered nearby and the two nosed through snowy branches for browse and munch.
