MR MOOSE
This beauty has been hanging around my back door for a while. Actually, its my young apple trees that he is eyeing (moose love to eat apple trees). Hes a whopper of a moose, not fully grown yet, but still weighing in at about 1,000 pounds; a perfect specimen. He is not camera shy, but you can see it in his eyes that he is NOT a friendly guest.
We had a late spring dump of snow this week, as you can see, and it made a nice contrast for Mr. Mooses beautiful brown fur (usually they blend into the scenery and you really have to watch for them).
Moose are nothing to be toyed with. They are totally passive unless they feel threatened, then they will come after you! Everyone who lives in Alaska KNOWS that you dont get between a mother moose and her babies...that is serious danger.
I hope this guy moves on and leaves my little apple trees alone. Hubby wrapped them in burlap for the winter because the moose have eaten them to near-death the last several winters. Hopefully, this burlap trick will work.
The moose arent around so much in the summer because, as the snow melts, they recede up into the higher (people-less) elevations. In the winter, the deep snow forces them down to populated areas, so we get a LOT of them in our yard over the winter. Moose are a big threat to pets, especially dogs, because dogs love to chase and harrass moose, which ends up with the moose kicking and stomping the dog (often fatally).
So...Mr. Moose...go on your merry way and please dont eat my little trees!
