Science Café – Lovers and a Dangerous Tine: The Remarkable Sex Life of Moose

(Ottawa) â€“  Moose appear to be quiet, innocuous animals for most of the year but during their breeding season, the Rut, they become highly animated and vocal creatures. 

Join ÐÓ°ÉÔ­´´ Biology Professor Michael Runtz on Wednesday, Feb. 10, for a highly visual presentation that will explore the ageless rituals of moose love, including the roles played by the bulls’ antlers.

The discussion, followed by a question and answer period, will take place from 6:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. at the Wild Oat Café at 817 Bank Street in the Glebe.

The Science Café series is organized by the Faculty of Science at ÐÓ°ÉÔ­´´ University to discuss relevant issues facing our society and how science can help solve real-world problems. Meet our award-winning faculty members as they share their excitement about science with the community. For more information visit .
