bigfish1965 Posted October 27, 2009 Report Posted October 27, 2009 Take from http://www.stevesugrim.com/blog/2009/01/big-moose.html
Skud Posted October 27, 2009 Report Posted October 27, 2009 Hope that big boy spreads out is genetics before he takes a bullet. That is much bigger than average.
MCTFisher9120 Posted October 27, 2009 Report Posted October 27, 2009 2nd on that site Incredable man, just incredable. Never got to see a Moose like that before but is a "Bull" the biggest of them all aka that!
danc Posted October 28, 2009 Report Posted October 28, 2009 It's always nice to get out of your vehicle to get closer for that awesome photo when you see a Northwestern Ontario Moose.
danbouck Posted October 28, 2009 Report Posted October 28, 2009 Wasn't that pic posted on here last year?
irishfield Posted October 28, 2009 Report Posted October 28, 2009 Like Jasper and the goal is a close up of the bear...
drwxr Posted October 28, 2009 Report Posted October 28, 2009 wow those beasts are giant. can't believe some hunt these big creatures for fun. any idea how old are they?
danc Posted October 28, 2009 Report Posted October 28, 2009 Wasn't that pic posted on here last year? Maybe. Some of us weren't here last year.
Dara Posted October 28, 2009 Report Posted October 28, 2009 wow those beasts are giant. can't believe some hunt these big creatures for fun.any idea how old are they? 5 to 10 years old likely. They are only fun till you shoot them, when you have to drag them out of the bush it is all work.
bigugli Posted October 28, 2009 Report Posted October 28, 2009 wow those beasts are giant. can't believe some hunt these big creatures for fun.any idea how old are they? That there would be a year's supply of meat for some lucky family. Don't snigger, I've known a few families who have depended on game as the sole supply of meat over winter.
Greencoachdog Posted October 28, 2009 Report Posted October 28, 2009 Mooses!!!... they're such a "killer" vegetarian species eh?!!! I guess they're fair game if you're too afraid to hunt wild hogs with a pocket knife! Canadian wussies glorifing killing mild mannered vegetarians... what's next???... Steelhead fishing???
Bernie Posted October 28, 2009 Report Posted October 28, 2009 That there would be a year's supply of meat for some lucky family. Don't snigger, I've known a few families who have depended on game as the sole supply of meat over winter. That fact still holds true. I also know of some to this day.
Guest ThisPlaceSucks Posted October 28, 2009 Report Posted October 28, 2009 mild mannered? come up to canada in october and walk through the bush with a fake rack on your head! then you'll see how mild mannered a pissed off bull is!
danc Posted October 28, 2009 Report Posted October 28, 2009 mild mannered? walk through the bush with a fake rack on your head! Fake racks are a dime a dozen these days. Speaking of which, has anyone else ever seen that documentary about that woman artist from Quebec that walks with the Moose?? I've seen it twice but haven't seen it in over 10 years. Amazing show. She does exactly what you're talking about Doc and she has the Moose in the palm of her hands. And her artistic talents are amazing.
Twocoda Posted October 28, 2009 Report Posted October 28, 2009 (edited) Imagine if you will.....pedal to the floor in reverse on a dirt road in an astro van....why ???? because a mild mannered moose wanted to ask for directions to the water hole??? i dont think so ... luckily the dust storm from going so fast in reverse stopped him from charging on GCD i had bow for supper last night ...and Caribou tonight ...if there was wild boar around these parts i would have that tomorrow night ...but i think ill settle for an American delicacy of a milked out Holstein from our local Mc Donalds Edited October 28, 2009 by Twocoda
muskymike Posted October 28, 2009 Report Posted October 28, 2009 mild mannered? come up to canada in october and walk through the bush with a fake rack on your head! then you'll see how mild mannered a pissed off bull is! Seems like a reasonable thing that most people would do for fun. Then travel to the arctic covered in seal blubber and blood and throw ice at a polar bear, surely it wont be provoked.
wuchikubo Posted October 28, 2009 Report Posted October 28, 2009 It's the first time I've seen that pic. That bull moose looks massive! Either it's big or it's walking through miniture world.
Cookslav Posted October 28, 2009 Report Posted October 28, 2009 Geeze those are Huge I've seen a fair share from a distance and a handfull up close and personal but none quite that big. Beautifull and healthy I might add.... If one of my buddies brought me that to butcher I think I'd have to charge some overtime LOL!
thalweg Posted October 28, 2009 Report Posted October 28, 2009 Certainly a trophy Bull if you're into that sort of thing. I prefer the taste of calves myself and rather let those big fella's keep makin em!!
fishindude Posted October 28, 2009 Report Posted October 28, 2009 What a beautiful animal, a true symbol of Canada. Never understood how someone could kill such a large animal, but to each their own. Cheers
canadadude Posted October 28, 2009 Report Posted October 28, 2009 Thats one big old bull, probably on it's last years of fertility.......probably taste like an ole boot aswell not a very good specimen to hunt for the table, better off to leave this old dude alone to live out it's last days.

" La Femme aux Orignaux" She was killed by a bull a few years back........... I'll try to find a link........... RFS
