Mammal on Ontario's coat of arms (5)

I believe the answer is:

moose

(Other definitions for moose that I've seen before include "Large N American deer like European elk" , "beasts" , "North American deer" , "Large northern deer" , "Large US deer" .)

I've seen this clue in The Wall Street Journal.
