I don't know a lot about moose, but this one looks very thin. Considering that we are heading into winter that doesn't bode well for this one's survival.
Can anyone give me more insight into this?

Nice capture Jeff! Love the colors, and the water falling off the muzzle of the moose. I don't much about moose either, but I think Donna is right. It may be the color pattern of the coat, but it looks like you can see the ribs on this moose.

Jeff,
Great shot of the Autumn; color, furry mammals, and a nice sharp shot from a canoe!!
I agree that this guy looks a little thin. This looks like a young male based on the knobs on top of his head that have not sprouted antlers yet. I would normally expect this to be a characteristic of the springtime, although maybe this guy is so young he doesn't grow antlers yet? I'm not expert either!
