Everyone is happy to see spring on the Troth Yeddha' Campus, including these moose (Alces americanus) enjoying the growing greenery. These photos were taken on May 11 by Mohabbat Ahmadi near his apartment on Tanana Loop. Ahmadi is an associate professor of petroleum engineering.

As you walk around campus, or anywhere in Alaska for that matter, be sure to stay aware of your surroundings and be respectful of the animals and birds as they search for food and raise their young.
