Some of these idiotic, non-hunter-made comments is exactly why these hunting videos should include the follow-up and recovery of the dead animal. For those of you who are not hunters, it is extremely stupid AND dangerous to immediately follow an injured animal. In doing so, you can do several things, none of which are good: 1. You can "bump" the animal after it lays down to die, which just makes it run farther AND the added adrenaline in the animal extends it's life & suffering. 2. By bumping it, you can "chase" it into thicker forestation, which can make it impossible to recover. In any case it will make it herder to recover. 3. You can come across the animal which cannot run any farther, but will kick into "fight" mode, which with a moose-sized animal is a very dangerous thing to do. 4. In any of these cases, you deprive the animal of a death with some level of respect and honor. Most sportsmen are not out just to kill something. If we were, we'd just kill anti-hunters (that's called sarcasm. We really wouldn't...there isn't an "Anti-hunter Season" that I know of). Most want a clean, immediate kill, for the animals sake. I don't know of any hunter that wants an animal to suffer. Many hunters hunt to prevent wildlife the suffering and dishonor of being eaten alive by predators (coyotes, wolves, bears) or starvation, which is the "natural" way for animals to die. (Sure, some grow old, but when they do, they, like humans, slow down, and in the wild that makes then dinner for predators).
+Mike T156 Understood completely. I "inherited" my step-dad's bow (that my 20 yr old son has already "inherited" FROM me, LOL) for much the same reason. He is an avid quail hunter, and he stopped bow hunting because he kept finding deer with arrows in them that had not been recovered by the hunter that shot them. He decided he didn't want an animal to suffer that much so he gave it up. That said, I again repeat my point. Videos should show the recovery of the animals, and the hunters should show the respect that they have for the animal. The more we can educate the non-hunter, the fewer anti-hunters we will have.
+Mike T156 Why do you value the moose, elk, caribou, deer, etc over the life of smaller game animals? Wild LIFE is all sacred. As a longbow hunter myself, I value all life in the woods. The problem with your statement is that rifle hunters miss too. I've seen it a million times. With my longbow, I can hit a baseball sized target from 20 yards all day long. That's plenty to kill any wild animal. The issue comes when people take marginal shots. If I don't think I can kill them, or I have limbs and shit in the way, then I don't take the shot. That's being a responsible hunter. Arrows are very deadly! They are a close range weapon. Unfortunately there are hunters out there that will take a pot shot at an animal, which usually results in a wounded, not dead animal. Hunt to live....
I know, let's just kill all wildlife to stop their suffering in the future. Animals killing other animals is NATURAL AND APART OF NATURE. Animals getting eaten alive is APART OF NATURE. So let's just kill everything is what you are implying. Who are you to decide what is right and what is wrong?
People who don't like hunters do not realize that hunters are the #1 contributors, through licenses, tags and permits, to the wildlife officials who keep close tabs on animal populations. This circular coalition has been very effective in the last 30 years or so. Almost all wildlife populations in all states are now large and stable. I know it seems odd to say that killing some helps the others, but its a fact. Overpopulation can be devastating for other species, and the overpopulated one as well. They will eventually die off in large numbers from lack of food and disease in a slow, suffering, mass starvation. Banning hunting would create a sort of wildlife concentration camp.
***** Its far from misinformation. Its fact. I know you want to imagine a world where humans and animals hold hands and sing campfire songs in glorious harmony, but that is not the real world. Humans have encroached upon the land. Good or bad, we are here to stay and that's a fact. If we don't regulate and control wildlife populations it can destroy the natural habitat for all. Just be lucky that hunters care enough about the environment to actually use the money from their pocket in a effort to help keep the populations strong and healthy.
Congrats on bring that animal so close to you. It shows how important it is for you to get a good clean shot. I am not a hunter I would only take photos. I don't care for the taste of deer and other wild game. I would like to have seen the downed animal. Thanks you for sharing this experience with us.
As a whitetail deer hunter, my problem with some of these moose vids is that the animal is so large and the hunter is so far from civilization,... I know that the hunter is not packing that entire animal out of the woods. I see alot where they can only manage the rack and a hind quarter. They leave the rest for bears and varmint. To me that is still sport hunting for antlers.
I think that you need to do some research about the gutless method. Ive hunted out west for 2 years, and do all of my white tails this way. All quarters are cut, and bagged. Backstraps, tenderloin, and scrap in another. It is very feasible to carry a whole moose out, including antlers. It is not only unethical, but it is against the law in all 50 states and Canada to waste meat. Wanton Waste laws. Please understand the facts before you comment.
"...I know that the hunter is not packing that entire animal out of the woods" Those are pretty damning accusatory statements! EVERY moose hunter I've either hunted with or know hunts moose has ALWAYS packed ALL the meat out of the woods no matter how much there is or how much it weights!. It is ILLEGAL to allow game meat to spoil and it would be considered poaching. Unless you have positive proof that there was any meat spoilage, I'd suggest you keep those kinds of comments to yourself or better yet, make some inquiries before spewing out those statements. IF you do have positive proof, then please, by all means, contact the authorities, be it the police, game wardens or some sort of crime prevention hot-line and give them the information. If you did witness these activities taking place and didn't report them, then I consider you as much a poacher as the guys who left the meat behind.
In Alaska your required to salvage all moose and are legally required to haul all meat first antlers last aswell as keep sex attached to the animal we do pack moose far when u drop em a ways back
Actually the less it tries to run the further it gets Blood loss causes hypoxia--> heart pumps faster and respiration increases which causes more blood loss --> animal tries to run and burns up oxygen even faster--> heart pumps even harder respiration increases even more resulting in even greater blood loss. This cycle continues in an exasperating fashion until the moose loses oxygen to the brain gets light headed, takes a tumble and falls. After that they generally die within a minute
justin off Is that what you call swimming? That moose had 4 feet of leg sticking out of the water. it barely had its hooves wet. since you know everything maybe you should go find something constructive to do and stay off your mommy's computer.
@@brocklesnar371 because there seems to be a correlation between the incoherent babbling comments and ppl who are not productive and cant make it in the real world. It’s a common theme that dumb asses that don’t know nothing are often not too successful. Recognizing that fact does not reflect back on them
What's up with the horse's ass calling the moose like it's coming back to him? Then he collapses as if he's exhausted from his big fight, pulling a bowstring.
Are moose that stupid? I keep seeing people stand in the open. moose walks right up to them then they shoot the moose and act like there 10 yard shot was something marvelous. I love Hunting but c'mon
Moose have instincts and react to ticks... Calling the moose stupid for that is like you getting called stupid for getting a boner when you see a naked chick, you can't help it and neither can the moose.
I guess I am used to animals when the see humans in the field they take off. Just like a deer in Rut they let the guard down but they aren't completely oblivious to a human on the ground.
+Big Mike white tail are exceptionally spooked. I dare say black bears are even more cautious than moose. Moose really dont get scared easily. they are probably the biggest animal in the coniferous. A strange smelling ape nearly 1/8th your size shouldnt seem threatening, considering a moose is incapable of recognizing the bow as a fatal danger. Its a good reason why africa has larger game animals than the americas, the species grew with the danger of humans. American species never had such a handicap. 13,000 years ago, humans began on the eventual extinction of 36 large mammel american species. It took the prehistoric humans 2000 years to do it. The moose, big bear, and buffalo species are the only ones to survive. Which is impressive considering all three were on the brink at some point in time. The scale of the land mass saves them then, but makes them ignorant of the danger of humans now.
+Ryan Cameron Thanks for the input. It definatley makes more sense. I don't live where there are moose or Bear so I'm used to Deer, Turkey and other smaller creatures that scurry in sight of humans
That's not a hunter. A real hunter would have pursued the animal, and not let it get away and not let it suffer to death later down the trail wherever the moose went. It's so obvious these guys are just selling their products.
+Psi.Upsilon McGill uhhh how do you know they didnt pursue it after watching just a minute long video? A lot of hunters shoot there prey and follow the blood trail after a few minutes b/c with a kill shot like that, the animal wont get far.
+Psi.Upsilon McGill You're super wrong in saying this :/ No "real hunters" would ever follow a freshly wounded animal like that. That's when they're crazy and frantic and fighting for their lives. It's super dangerous. MUCH better to let it bed down and pass away and then follow the blood trail to it. That's what determines a true hunter. They can call an animal in, make the shot, then track the animal down. All the major elements of hunting in that order makes for a safe hunt.
+Psi.Upsilon McGill I have shot moose with a wooden recurve bow in the same spot behind the front shoulder and the moose dropped in a few yards. Just because you can't see it fall... I assure you it was dead in less than 30 seconds. A lot less than if it were taken down and eaten alive by wolves, which would have caused the moose to suffer for a long time, even up to an hour.
why does a cowardly man who is biologically designed to be a herbavore need a weapon? how can one be proud and happy with killing a magnificent creature in such a cowardly manner?
molinobeer incorrect - if we were we would have a short digestive tract like lions do and wouldnt need to COOK out meat. Our closest biological relatives are primates which we share about 97% of our DNA code, and they are not carnivores. Biologically Homosapians are herbavores with the occasional opportunistic feed of non-plant based food
OMGLYKEWOW A lion has a short digestive tract designed for a raw meat diet. Humans are not designed to eat meat. Red meat causes cancer in humans but not in lions - funny that isnt it. How much meat does a gorilla have in its daily diet? Does it eat vegetation, nuts, fruit etc OR does run around trying to catch zebras?

I have never hunted with a bow (yet) and partly for the reasons you listed.
That was a close up shot, great placement awesome video.

That's sheeple logic buddy. Don't regurgitate misinformation
how about we put a bag limit on hunters as well. bcoz the way i see it too many hunters causes overcrowding.

Almost looks like a swastika for your picture?
@@greglucero8714 is that supposed to be a question? Rather incoherent
Really cool, it takes a lot of courage to get that close to a bull moose. I enjoyed the video.
Amazing shot, well done!
Is there a recovery video?
why is he scraping the trees after the shot and trying to cow call????
Short and sweet. I subscribed and liked
i saw no take down.
you think he's gonna come back after you kill him
They do that to keep him close as possible. If the shot isn’t good, it’s best to find that out before he’s a mile away

Zero point in calling after it was shot.
have to be blind to miss that one, i suppose its get a trophy anyway ya can,wonder how long it took to expire, looked full of running to me
What are you incoherently carrying on about?
Actually the less it tries to run the further it gets
Blood loss causes hypoxia--> heart pumps faster and respiration increases which causes more blood loss --> animal tries to run and burns up oxygen even faster--> heart pumps even harder respiration increases even more resulting in even greater blood loss.
This cycle continues in an exasperating fashion until the moose loses oxygen to the brain gets light headed, takes a tumble and falls. After that they generally die within a minute
hitmen or freaks ?
pretty sure there is a regulation, especially in ontario, about harvesting when the animal is swimming. definitely foul play

+Tmw Camden After a shot, you can get a moose to stop if you call it. Stops it from bolting into the middle of no where and helps recovery.
So you eat it. Why don't you show the recovery and how you made good use of the kill. Like how you got it back home and gutted it and cooking it
Im into hunting but this soo OP
Lose the friggen music!
I like hunting don't get me wrong but this is more like attracting waiting and killing
oh by the way I have killed shot on three continents
Sam Hunt cool story bro
this is what I call sport

moose are alphas they fear not man this aint hunting its boring
Isn't shooting a moose in the water illegal? Even harassing a moose in the water is against the game rules.
Always a warden on every video 🙄
Only if it is swimming
meanie
Yarmoose pussy 😂
I could be wrong all together, or maybe it's state dependant but I thought it was illegal to shoot an animal when they are in water?
These arent hunters. Hunting is just an excuse for acting cool with weapons and kill animals. I mean look at the musik and the logo
