Adopt A Moose
Moose Pip & Jo: Pip, short for Pippi Longstocking. Jo, short for Josephine March from Little Women. Pip was found alone in Seward in May 2020, too young to be on her own. It is not known what happened to mom. Pip is a sweet moose and is more independent than Jo, often choosing to be off by herself. Jo’s mom was shot in defense of life and property when she charged a fisherman in Anchorage in June 2020. Jo was very quickly picked up by the Alaska Department of Fish and Game and then brought to AWCC. She was much shyer and more afraid of people since she was with mom only hours before she was brought into human care. She was also a bit bigger, maybe a week or two older than Pip. As Jo has gotten older, she has become the more dominant female moose.
