In 1898 a cow and bull were transported To Newfoundland from Nova Scotia.Later in the early 1900's 2 bulls and 4 cows were delivered from New Brunswick.
These days the Newfoundland ecosystem is being altered by over browsing from the more than 750,000 moose that call the Rock home.

They dont compare to the Alaskan/Yukon strain but they do grow bigger than the shiras moose strain in the lower 48.
Amazing how quickly they have reproduced considering NFL is a very inhospitable place, especially in the winter.The islands moose numbers are so high they are causing severe damage to the timber industry(particularly balsam fir) and are displacing the native woodland caribou herds.
