That all depends on the sex, age, reproductive and health status of the moose, and the age, health of the bull as well as whether he's got horns or not. If the bull has no horns and the bull moose does (as a result of being involved in the rutting season), then the moose would win. Cow moose with calves versus polled bull, cow moose may win by driving off the bull with her flailing hooves. If she's in heat....well that's a different story.

Now what if the bull does have horns? The fight would turn out a little differently, especially when a rutting bull moose is set to do battle against a horned bull. Bulls' heads are set lower to the ground than the moose and consequently may gore the moose with his horns. The bull may not be able to do this if the moose meets him full-on and they start a head-butting match. But, since a bull is often quite a bit heavier, more muscular and larger-boned than a moose, the bull would be able to push the moose around enough to make it give up and move off in defeat. If a bull moose may get its antlers at the belly of the bull, it could do a bit of damage, but probably not enough to kill him.

Moose. It's the largest deer in the world with bulls tipping the scales at 1400 lbs and standing almost 7 ft tall at the shoulders with an antler span of at least 6 ft long. Older bulls tend to have a longer antler-span and larger antlers than young bulls. Bull elk on the other hand are typically around 550 lbs body weight, nowhere in size or height of a moose and they have smaller antlers too, as far as breadth is concerned rather than length from antler-base to antler-tip, which tend to be slightly longer or the same as a bull moose. Thus the moose has this one.

Both bison and bull moose are aggressive animals when faced with an enemy or another grass-eating animal that shouldn't be around where they are. Bison are shorter to the ground and have a more powerful build than a moose, and moose are higher off the ground with those long-spindly legs. However, those spindly legs have sharp hooves on them that can be an added advantage against any foe.

The thing to remember is that it is highly unlikely that each would kill the other. It is more about who would win as in who would turn tail and run the other direction instead of continuing a fight to the death. In the natural world, bison don't live where moose do and vice versa. However, that's not saying that they don't cross paths from time to time because they do often live in the same area as the other. For instance, there are moose in Prince Albert National Park in addition to the bison that roam there.

When a bull moose does cross paths with a bison, the two animals may leave each other alone, or, if the bull moose is on the rut, he may try to pick a fight with the bull bison of the bison herd, or simply charge and chase the bison out of the vicinity. As far as if a bull bison decides to try to defend his herd against a raging bull moose, it's hard to say who will win. It most likely might end as a draw, where the two animals settle their differences after a short "discussion" and move off in different directions, or the bull bison may decide the moose is too much to handle and decides to get the heck out of there.

The elephant would win against the bull moose on the rut very easily by trampling or crushing the moose. A bull elephant on the rut is far more powerful than a whole group of bull moose on the rut. Even if the bull moose hit the elephant with its antlers, the elephant has thick skin to protect itself from injuries. One crush or stomp of the bull elephant is enough to kill a moose.

The elephant because it is strong enough to kill a rhinoceros or a hippo. Even though the moose has antlers and hooves, the elephant has the deep muscles and a size advantage over the moose. An elephant would crush it easily by stomping that the moose to death like it did to anything else.

In water, the nile crocodile would win and eat the moose. On land, the moose and the crocodile have a winning match if the moose does not slice the crocodile with its antlers.
