Moose are relatively new residents in Glacier Bay, arriving in the 1960s. Two hundred years ago, most of Glacier Bay was under ice. As that ice retreated, new land was exposed and plants became established. One of those plants was willow, which is one of the moose’s most preferred foods. Moving in from the Haines area, moose made their way to Glacier Bay via a pass called Endicott Gap which connects through to Adams Inlet on the east side of Glacier Bay. This moose is eating the last stubs of willow that remain above the snow level. Photographer: Sean Neilson
