When moths turn away moose
|
|
|
|
The tiny larvae of the willow leafblotch miner moth feed on the leaves of the sandbar willow, browning them out by midsummer. Though the infested leaves look as unappetizing as a wormy apple, moose don’t eat leaves of the sandbar willow. Winter is when moose, in their quest for 30 pounds of twigs each day, turn to the sandbar willow, which by then has no leaves.
