been coming around for years but the dog would always run it off. no dog now. the idiot built a nest by the maple tree. there isn't a nut in 6 miles.

maybe i'll eat it. i haven't had moose in 40 years. probably for a reason.

not very neighborly though.

Luv,

Birdie
 
I may need to get stronger glasses. I thought this thread had my name in the title. Or maybe I need a weaker ego.
 

Years ago friends of mine were hunting moose on Ontario, the way the draw works is cows and bulls are a draw, but anyone with a license could shoot a calf back then.

My chum shoots a calf and at first the cow wouldn't leave then she got progressively more pissed off until she charged them several times. The last time he shot her between the eyes at less than 5 feet.

The Rangers let him off because there were powder burns on the moose's forehead.
 
If you kill the noble moose, one of my brethren. I will hunt you down, find your house, and steal every single pair of socks you own. When your feet are covered in blisters you will know the vengeance of the mighty moose!

I don't wear socks, so you can have them.

Or as we call them in Maine, the Tick Bus.

Here deer are good hood ornaments.

According to the Canadian Wilds series of books, moosehide makes the best socks. I should have my frau make me a pair. We do have a tanned moosehide.
 
Send some of them there moose down here to Texas!

I wonder if they could be crossed with a Whitetail?

The laws are still like that for moose hunting here in Ontario and this happened to friends of mine too. They played a game of hide and seek around a log in a river for over 2 hours before finally she had had enough and charged.
Mama moose are VERY protective of their young...
 
I love moose. In northern BC the local natives had an expression:
"Tight as a moose ear" which was true, if you ever hunted with them.
Also, eating the tenderloin raw while still warm after a kill was special.
At one time I had 100 quart jars of canned moose meat.
Tasty!
 
Moose in the News

SPOKANE, Wash. -
A wild moose chase created quite a stir in North Spokane Thursday morning.

Police and wildlife officers swarmed Shadle Park High School’s campus trying to wrangle in the juvenile moose.

Students and teachers were asked to stay inside the school while patrol cars kept the animal from wandering into traffic.

It took a few hours, but wildlife officers tranquilized the moose. They planned on releasing him back into the wild.

How manly! Shooting the mother of the baby you just killed. You hunters have to be the most bad ass things to walk the earth.

Take the moose down without a gun or a bow and I'll acknowledge you might have testicles.

And the way you all brag "Yeah got this one from x yards...oh, my! High powered weapons from a distance. Oh....how I wish I was that cool.

Too bad your chum didn't get run through would have been one less prick in the world. Next time you hunt I hope your gun jams and you get gored. Serve you right. And spare me in this day and age you kill for food, really.
