Antlers appear to act as large hearing aids.  This effect was discovered by researchers George and Peter Bubenik and published the findings in the European Journal of Wildlife in March 2008. Moose with antlers have far more sensitive hearing than moose without. The pair then studied trophy antlers with an artificial ear, confirming the discovery of the effects on hearing by acting as a parabolic reflector.<ref>[http://www.guardian.co.uk/science/2008/mar/21/medicalresearch.animalbehaviour Moose's sharp hearing is attributed to antlers | Science | The Guardian<!-- Bot generated title -->]</ref>
