    In Anchorage Alaska we had a narrow l -shaped kennel. A young bull moose actually got in there and turned around and came out. They love dog food. Another time a large moose went into our kennel, stuck its head in the trash can full of dog food, knocked it over and just laid down and kept eating. Very fun to watch but also very dangerous.

      We live in a semi-rural area that is becoming more citified. It used to be farmland in the country and backs up to a state park now. We’re extremely lucky to have a generational deer family living in our woods that we have planted sacrificial trees and plants for to help stop them from eating neighbors vegetables and fruit trees. The deer love to bring their babies to eat and play in our yard and it’s nice to see them year round. We have other creatures like bunnies, moles, voles, squirrels, foxes, coyotes, and sometimes bears but don’t see them, just evidence that they’ve been in the yard. Moose would be cool but we’re in North Carolina so I don’t expect them anytime soon.
      Thank you everyone for sharing your Christmas trees. It was so lovely.

My husband got a picture of us and by the time we hiked back to camp we realized he had left the camera! He hiked back but it was gone. I have rued that loss for fifty years! Don't let it happen to you! What an awesome memory!

    On my second day in Alaska, it was in March as I recall, my wife and I were just hanging out on our porch. Imagine my surprise when a gorgeous female moose just sauntered up to the porch as she grazed whatever the heck it is moosies graze at the time of year. She seemed almost placid, completely calm, as she walked right past me within eighteen inches I'd guess, and I stood frozen stiff as a board. The lower forty-eight in Pennsylvania have some biggish critters like black bears and white tail deer, even an elk from time to time. But -- oh, brother! -- Mrs. Moose was a gigantic treat. I fell in love that day with a state and a creature. Alaska rocks, moose do too!

    Wow, an electric fence probably doesn’t work for a moose. We fortunately don’t have that problem in Illinois. But now you will have her back looking for food.

    The first time I saw a bull moose was my very first trip to Tetons. Horse ride through the mountains. It was laying under a tree right next to our trail. I had no idea how dangerous they were I was just excited to see it! Antlers soooo huge even laying down I remember the antlers were reaching far into the high up branches on the pines. Just incredible they are!!!

    Just came across your channel and the moose grabbed me. It’s been so long since I’ve seen one. Grew up in the far North of Ontario. Lived on the edge of town next to miles and miles of forest. Black bears would sometimes come out on the trails in the woods but moose more if travelling in the car on small ‘highways’, would see them on the side, sometimes with their calf. Saw a stupid tourist parked and moving in on foot to get a good picture of a mom and calf. Stopped and yelled at them that they needed to turn around NOW! Took some convincing, the idiots. Thank you for this unique close-up.

    What about a double fence? Check Living Homestead Tradition and how they solved the deer going into their garden. They have a double 6’ fence six feet apart making a moat of 6’ where the chickens also run. It has to do with deer won’t jump if they can’t be sure of landing and there isn’t enough room to jump and jump again. Another thing you might look into, an alarm goes off to scare the moose away. Deep South Homestead had a motion detector that set off dogs barking. Just suggestions.

    In Wasilla, Alaska we had a moose show up every year, sometimes with a calf. We named her Goldie because of her color. Her back was higher than the Explorer and could lick the vehicle clean! Get a salt lick and set it off the drive a ways. May help. Air horns work good to. Love the video. Thank you for following the rules, yes they are beautiful.

    Western North American moose are different than the Eastern ones. Eastern moose would have run or walked away and would not confront you, since you were not between it and the young’n. ❤ Love them! I’m envious of your lifestyle.
