Dragon moose

The Dragon Moose is a carriage-pulling animal used in the Fire Nation.

Anatomy
The Dragon Moose is quadruped, about the size and build of a moose. Its head is crowned with a pair of long, backwards curving bifurcated horns and its neck and shoulders sport a dark mane. Its relation to a dragon is indicated by its bat wing-like ears, the long barbels at the corners of its mouth and the row of dorsal spines extending from its nape to the tufty tip of its tail.

Connection
The Dragon Moose is based on the mythical dragon and the largest members of the deer family, known in America as moose. Apart from their size and long, heavy heads, moose are distinguished from other members of the deer family by the wide palmate antlers possessed by the males of the species. These antlers are shed and re-grown annually.
