[...] If you find yourself in the Järvsö area, maybe taking advantage of the Swedish Right of Public Access, and camping in the beautiful surroundings, a trip to Järvzoo will make for an excellent outing. If in Stockholm for just a few days, head over to Skansen. [...]

In North American usage, the terms “moose” and “elk” refer to two different animals. See: http://naturetravels.wordpress.com/2007/10/29/what%E2%80%99s-the-difference-between-a-moose-and-an-elk/
