Just had a moose steak here.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moose

My son's girlfriend comes from the north of Sweden. One thing she was
surprized about when she moved down south was that people bought meat
in a store. So the last time she was home visiting her parents, she
came back with full suitcases of meat: moose, reindeer ...

Not much fat on it.
