Some terrific shots there, Bob, especially the later up close and
personal ones!  So neat that you got these shots in their natural
habitat (as opposed to a zoo).

Of course in Canada, we can shoot all the moose we want as they wander
down our main thoroughfares.

Thanks Frank.
We had to go 1,000 miles to find these moose.
But one wandering down my street would be frightening.
Like Bill Robb says, they're mighty big.

 I don't believe they can hunt moose in that part of the park,
 but the BB's owner where we stayed said they hadn't seen any the day before.
 It was apparently late to go out looking.

Great shots Bob, strange looking animal!

Subject: Re: GESO: Moose

Thanks Rob, moose are distant relatives of deer and only seen in the 
north.


We were camping near a hot spring along the Lochsa rinver in Idaho many, 
many years ago. It was a short walk, perhaps a half mile to the hot spring, 
on a fairly typical forest path. We had the annoying little dog with us, a 
small terrier /spaniel cross named Zenit..
While not the most trustworthy dog about bugging out, she was good about not 
going far and recalling immediately, so we were allowing her some offleash 
time.
Suddenly she goes haring off into the forest yelling at the top of her 
lungs. And there was a series of very loud crashes as something very large 
took off away (fortunately) from us. I caught a glimpse of the rump of an 
animal, and thought great, the dumb little bitch scared off someone's ride.
And then I realized that this would have had to be a mutantly large 
Clydesdale to be a horse, and that she had scared herself a Moose.


Bloody huge animals.

 You want to see Moose you should go to Massachusetts Cities, apparently...

http://www.boston.com/news/local/articles/2008/10/01/police_kill_wandering_moose_in_worcester/.

New England is getting more wild and yet the wildlife is getting tamer,  
There have been bear sightings not 5 miles from where I'm typing this, 
(it was farmland 60 years ago, but mostly suburbs now), and Wild Turkeys 
are so ubiquitious that it's become easy to photograph them.


Those are good shots by the way.
