This beauty has been hanging to a greater extent than or less my dorsum door for a acre MR. MOOSE

We had a belatedly boundary dump of snowfall this week, every bit you lot tin see, together with it made a squeamish contrast for Mr. Moose's beautiful brownish fur (usually they blend into the scenery together with you lot actually conduct keep to spotter for them).

Moose are zip to move toyed with. They are totally passive unless they experience threatened, together with hence they will come upwards subsequently you! Everyone who lives inward Alaska KNOWS that you lot don't larn betwixt a woman nurture moose together with her babies...that is serious danger.

I promise this guy moves on together with leaves my piddling apple tree trees alone. Hubby wrapped them inward burlap for the wintertime because the moose conduct keep eaten them to near-death the final several winters. Hopefully, this burlap describe a fast i on volition work.

The moose aren't to a greater extent than or less hence much inward the summertime because, every bit the snowfall melts, they recede upwards into the higher (people-less) elevations. In the winter, the deep snowfall forces them downward to populated areas, hence nosotros larn a LOT of them inward our yard over the winter. Moose are a big threat to pets, specially dogs, because dogs dear to chase together with harrass moose, which ends upwards amongst the moose kicking together with stomping the domestic dog (often fatally).

So...Mr. Moose...go on your merry agency together with delight don't swallow my piddling trees!
