Her name was Gisèle Benoit.

I love this picture...almost spit my coffee out.

 

Those guys look like they're doing a "Dances with Moose!" move.

 

...isn't that a patient transfer vehicle? Maybe the moose already had 1 down.

I'm a little surprised that no one has suggested that the photo is not genuine. It looks very real, except for the fact that the moose itself seems impossibly large. I hope it's real, but I'm cynical about such pics I see on the net.

Ain't Photoshop a wonderful toy? I've seen that first one in about a dozen different emails from almost as many different locations (reportedly) from Port Loring to somewhere in Alaska.

Take from http://www.stevesugrim.com/blog/2009/01/big-moose.html

 

 

Photoshopped if i've ever seen one....

[moemoe]

if you look at the site http://www.stevesugrim.com/blog/2009/01/big-moose.html, the second photo definitly looks photoshopped

Check out the "Grizzly Man" movie or Google Timothy Treadwell if you're into real life stories of people playing animal.

When I opened the thread, my first mental image was of Chuck Norris soiling his shorts.

I don't know...I don't think its photo shopped?

Even if it was its not as though they don't get that big?

 

 

 

I've seen them big enough to surmise they can and do get bigger.

If its a Photo shop then its a good job I suppose

I remember as a kid, someone in Napanee where I grew up, had shot a hige moose...just under the world record they had told us.

 

People from all around came to see it hanging in the tree there.

 

Amazing!

Pic may be photoshopped? In life they do get that big. Helped drag one that big north of the Soo some 27 years back. The bull was dressed, out and quartered where he dropped, and dragged back in 5 pieces. It was a very long walk dragging our chunk back to camp.

That's just un-real.

Bear in mind that the moose is in the foreground and the people are background so it looks a lot bigger...

[rickster]

and this is what hunts those big moose

If I was anyone but Rocky I'd be runnin from Bullwinkle!

That is a LARGE animal!! Damn!

[anders]

Like others..ive seen that email a few times now...and its been everywhere from Alaska, to Maine to NFLD and everywhere in between.

Although i know moose get to be massive...im a skeptic of this photo.
