2014 Moosing

[Steve Oehlenschlager]

It was the year of the moose out on the prairie this year. 14 different moose in 2 weeks. Had been 10 years since I had last seen one out there in North Dakota.

Where did you see the moose in ND? I lived in Lisbon for 3 years and would see maybe 2-3 moose a year. Neat pictures.

I'll be honest - I didn't even think ND had moose! I learned something today.

Those are Shiras/Wyoming moose correct?

Cool pics.

Maybe we have not been clear about the beach photos - we like racks! They don't have to be the 4 legged kind however!!!!

Cool pictures! My brother has seen them pretty much every fall when harvesting out here. They have been close enough to get ok quality cell phone pictures. And one Darwin candidate tried to hand feed one. There are some interesting articles about the prairie moose:

Can you imagine what something like that would do to a foodplot? Talk about destroying a soybean plot over night!

Impressive!!! Just curious if you have the EXIF for photo 2 and 6?
