Utah wildlife officials rescue moose trapped at bottom of canal Members of Utah's Division of Wildlife Resources reported that Utah is home to between 2,500 and 3,000 moose. The species is known as the largest animal in the deer family and can weigh up to 1,200 pounds and stand up to six feet tall at the shoulder.
