🫎❤️They are all so beautiful, well-fed, even 2-3 year olds, it’s very interesting what this year will bring. Study moose, document everything, meet friends, and (even just one phrase makes it easier) - breathe clean, cool air! God, after a month of 34C heat, it’s finally fresh air came in my region too. I'm definitely a moose - my max is 21C))🫠😂
Hello Mr and Mrs Moose Man, im sorry your trip got delayed 😢. When you do go I hope your trip is exceptional! The Bulls are awaiting your arrival😍🎉 JO JO IN VT 💞
Great line-up. Fernando's antlers resemble Swagger's cervina antlers... that villain! Please remind me, Boris showed up in 2023, didn't he? I gotta root for that old man. 😂
I also hoped beyond hope (and reason) that 22 would show up last year... still do! I seem to recall they're in different areas, but "Son of's" brow tines sure looked like 22's brow tines in 2022. It was nice to see.
If you don't mind: on a larger scale, all the moose in an area represent the herd. Particularly in interior Alaska, rutting bulls may gather a harem of cows. I'm not sure what you'd call all the moose you can see, other than maybe a group of five (e.g.).
There are so many bulls to find!!! I hope everyone shows up at a moose party this way, you could identify them all at once!! Great video of all the players. Can't wait. ❤❤🫎🫎👑👑☕️☕️
Ok truth in advertising: this actually WAS everything I wanted to know about Moose antlers . . . And more! Wow so much information, well presented and illustrated. Wait Moose can submerge and dive up to 20 feet below the surface???? Whaa?? Amazing. ScubaMoose!! Fantastic. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and moose imagery.
Thanks David and Sheila!!! Yeah, they DIVE??? I know! HA Love it; Scubamoose.Amazing animals, we learn more about them every outing. Glad you enjoyed! Love your work. Sorry I don't comment more often v hitting the like button. Not being lazy, just...you know...
The beards (bells, dewlaps) all vary in size and really have no bearing on dominance or age other than the very young bulls have nothing much in the way of a bell. Ropes likewise have no bearing, and they tend to get frozen and fall off. Thanks for watching!
What a great Bull Grumpy was! This video told a great story of who he was! I’ve only been around for a couple years watching your videos! so this video of Grumpy is pretty spectacular! I really enjoy how you narrate him. He was one big Bull with lots of character! Thank you! Can’t wait for your new videos of this year!
Thanks so much Theresa. Grumpy was amazing in every way. We miss him terribly. And we can't wait to get back. We'll be there in 10 days. Fingers crossed!!
God Speed and Happy Trails 🎉. I'll be wishing you well on your journey🤗. 🎶🎉🎊🎈👋! Beautiful new rack Big Guy😍. Uh oh Crabclaw😳. That was the cool thing with Grumpy, he always decorated for the occasion 🤭! See yah ...Layta. JO JO IN VT 💞
Safe travels. We're in for over a week of rain, but it'll make sunny days even sweeter. Loved the shots of Grumpy and Swagger palling around in velvet before the madness began!
Personally I love the rain (shakes, ya know). We had to change departure dates but it's all good. Life happens, right? Especially just when you've made plans from months before. Oh well! we'll get there! Hold the fort until the Rick!
