Description: Mac the Moose is indeed the "World's Largest Moose" statue located in Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan, Canada. It is one of Canada's most well-known roadside attractions and stands as a symbol of the town's pride and Canadian heritage. The iconic statue was first constructed in 1984 and stood at a height of 9.8 meters (32 feet) tall. In 2019, a controversy arose when a larger moose statue was unveiled in Norway, surpassing Mac the Moose in size. This prompted a local fundraising effort in Moose Jaw to reclaim the title of the "World's Largest Moose." With the support of donations and community efforts, Mac the Moose was given a makeover in 2020, adding new antlers and increasing its height to 10.36 meters (34 feet). As a result, Mac the Moose once again became the tallest moose statue in the world, proudly representing Moose Jaw and Canada. Mac the Moose continues to be a popular tourist attraction, drawing visitors from all over who come to see the giant moose and take photos with this colossal roadside landmark. It has become an iconic symbol of Moose Jaw and a testament to the town's creativity, resilience, and sense of community.
