Examining the nature of the beast.
Surprise! It's an Extra-Tuesday-Episode with Danielle and the second largest mammal in North America! Do you like us doing two episodes a week? Should it be a regular thing? Let us know down below.
That would be awesome, your work is amazing! Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and passion for animals with us all. 😊
A surprise to be sure ,but a welcome one. :D
If you can swing it; yeah, totally! ❤️
Double dose a week? I'm in!
YES, please! And can you please do a series on reptiles or a type of reptile like snakes or turtles the way you did the small cats?
The fact that there's "Moose insurance" in Canada says everything about how just absolute powerhouses moose are.
We always say 'the Moose might survive a car crashing into them, but you won't.'
@@Galaxia7 That really paints the image of their size in my head immediately
Even in Maine, we are taught how to survive an impact with a moose if you can't avoid hitting one.
My dad was a longhaul trucker for quite a few years, sometimes in a team so that when one person is driving, the other can get some sleep. One night he was woken up by being thrown out of the bunk at 2 in the morning. His teammate had hit a moose in the mountains of BC. The moose didn't even fall over. It looked into the cab, blinked twice, then wandered into the trees. The _truck_ however was written off for damage. Respect the moose, y'all.
@@LikeTheBuffalo what the hell
I'm surprised there isn't a video on pronghorns yet, also, can we take a moment to appreciate the work that Danielle and the crew put into these videos?
There will be one very soon!
😊
@@animalogic as someone from the area the weird little giraffids run around, I'm very happy to hear this. Pronghorn are incredibly beautiful and underappreciated animals.
@@animalogic Can you do a shoutout from Casual Geographic??
@@animalogic can you do a video on Tapirs? I love Tapirs! 🥰
Most people I talk to are surprised when I say I never want to come across a moose while hiking. if its across a lake or a marsh sure but on a hiking trail? No way.
These guys are really enormous, and so fast. Basically if it decides it doesn't like you, you're done.
i dont even have moose in my country and im scared
On a middle school trip to a local forest, we had a group of moose casually walk across a frequented path. I remember them being absolutely gigantic, like an elephant, which terrified me in itself.
Luckily they kept everyone on a safe distance from the crossing, few dozen meters, and the moose didn’t mind us. They could definitely have stampeded us in a moments notice though.
Do they actively attack people? Unprovoked, I mean?
Since they're not predators, I would have guessed that they're more likely to just walk away, despite their size.
But yeah, I wouldn't voluntarily go near one, either 😅
@@raraavis7782 they're very proactive about self defense. I've seen even deer pick on and try to hurt a dog that was chained up that had no way of hurting them. A moose wants to take you out before you can prove you're a threat to it, while a predator is just trying to determine if you're going to be easy enough to kill to be worth the calories spent
@@Romanticoutlaw
Having wildlife, that's in unfaced by humans (never mind dangerous) is just such a foreign concept to me, as a German. The most dangerous animals around here are ticks, I think 😅.
Well, theoretically, wild pigs. But the handful of incidents I'm aware of there, were in the context of hunts. Even mother pigs seem to generally prefer to avoid humans. I have certainly never seen one on my many walks and hikes. And deer or such only a handful of times from far away. Although we have so many of both apparently, that they're a problem for the ecosystem, despite being hunted.
These are such impressive animals, especially beautiful against the snow. And they're absolute forces to be reckoned with. I love these episodes where you don't just talk about the animals, you also go and see them. I really envy you.
Impressive yes. Beautiful....?
Its an honor to see the wild Dylan in its habitat
Would love to see a documentary surely on him
I am from Norway and I always get surprised by how North Americans regard Moose's, like they are a mythological creature or something. In Norway driving to my job over the summer I would see Moose`s almost every day, crossing the road or standing by the forest edge. Love the enthusiasm and video!!
It depends where you live in Canada, in Newfoundland there are moose everywhere, and it’s pretty common to see moose in the northern areas of most provinces especially during their mating season .
Considering you'll probably never see one outside of Canada, they might as well be mythological creatures for most of us. How do Europeans outside of Norway perceive them?
@@ClintEPereira I think most Europeans look at them the same way as depicted in this video, but they are really common in Scandinavia. However, as I currently reside in Minnesota I find it really interesting with Racoons and black bears, as we don`t have them in Norway or Europe. So its just interesting how where we live impacts what we view as unique.
Yeah, we view moose the same way midwestern Americans regard bears. You might come across one, probably will at some point, but there’s no imminent threat so long as you mind your own business.
I guess their mythological status might relate to their impressive stature, but I don’t think Europeans outside Scandinavia have any mystified idea of them either.
@@ulba98 Actually there are feral raccoons in Germany right now.
We're so blessed to still have some megafuana in our modern world. Thank you for your efforts and hard work, you guys are the best!

"Do we have moose insurance?" "Yeah we got full coverage" highlight of the video for me 😂
Danielle is so COOL and her enthusiasm is palpable. Watching her and learning from her brings me insane amounts of joy. She is brilliant and charming and... kinda just the best lol
yes!!!!
hm
That joy for moose is infectious.
Wow! This reminded me of my encounter with mooses. In Finland their common all around the country. I was picking up blueberrys from my summer cottage forest. I was so focused to collect the berries and I couldn't hear a thing moving. Once I stretched my legs two moose standed right in front of me. They sprung off and their was a massive cracking sound of breaking twigs from the ground... Me and my mom were in ave of what just happened... They can move with no sound at all. So stealthy and cool.😮
Yes! Nobody talks about how weird it is when you see them walk without a sound. Like, you would expect a vibration in the ground or anything, but nope, nothing.
Danielle: “I’ve never seen a moose before”
Every moose in a ten mile radius: “Allow us to introduce ourselves”
Glad to be intromoosed
I love the fact that their antler shedding is so rare, that i think the video they showed over and over again is the only one in existance.
(maybe it was just the first ever taken and there are others now, but sill, super rare vids)
So damn freaky when it shakes off its antlers 😳
The one and only moose I have ever seen close up was the stuffed one in the National Museum of Natural History in Washington, DC when I was a school child on a field trip. It was so huge, I just gazed at it in utter disbelief and silence.
HOLY CRAP! I've never seen a moose shed its antlers. That just made my day
They always looks so dang surprised LOL
I’m glad they keep showing the same clip of the drone footage of the moose shaking the antlers off , because that is sooooo weird and fascinating to watch. Plus the moose with the velvet falling off all bloody looks like a friggin horror movie poster or something , super metal 🤘
look at all the meese! soo cool! I always wanted to see a bunch of meese!
Danielle is so full of joy there. I am happy for her. It must have been awesome
I never liked animal shows until your videos but now I love them! It’s all in presentation and you are so great at these videos Danielle and crew. Keep them coming.😀❤
I love that Danielle wore the antlers
Your adventures fill me with wonder. You knowledge and willingness to share are much appreciated. Thanks to your team also!!!
variant title: "Moose are absolute unit"
He looks very open to receiving compliments.
Color me surprised, I didn’t realize they can literally shake off the antlers.
Thank you for sharing these beautiful and majestic creatures. I have never had the opportunity to see one in person.
I would also like to thank you for being respectful of their space. This is actually the first video, that I've seen, where the videographer, or someone being recorded, didn't. This was definitely an enjoyable learning experience ❤
"A great sign for the Ladys" The Look of Danielle after that hahaha xD
I wonder if Danielle has seen a Liger in person, and how that would compare to a moose. I've never seen a moose irl, but when i was like 10 I saw a Liger in a zoo and that thing's hulking size instilled a certain primal fear in me
i rented a cabin in banff one summer - the owner came by each day to rehay the roof line - each evening a moose, or two came by and ate the hay - WOW!!!!!
The fact that moose insurance is a thing... lol. I love that
Moose actually pee and look at you as a way to assert dominance so he was actually probably trying to warn or threaten you
Unfortunately, about 20 years ago, I got into an uncomfortably close encounter with a moose when I hit one on a rainy dark night out in the country on my way home from town.
"The most Canadian day ever" just needs a beaver and some maple syrup
When my daughter moved from TX to MT, they had moose and elk insurance on their vehicles.
There is a man Sweden that has a channel on CZcams with many moose. He scratches them like pets and they feed them.
we call 'em swamp donkeys in the martimes because the cows look like giant donkeys when you see them swimming in bogs.
We live in the Colorado Rockies and there are Moose everywhere. There are 4 bachelors who hang out in our area that will be 3 or 4 next year and a cow who comes every year with her 2 calves. They stay with her for 2 winters and then she has 2 more. This has been a regular occurrence for the past 10 years. We are very lucky!
I'm so happy for Danielle. Finally got to see a moose. Then three. Then nine!!!!!
Thanx Danielle for making this videos! Your positive attitude makes it such great fun!
Okay. THIS was cool. Its almost 3 am NY Time but this just came up on auto feed & HAVE to watch! Thanks!
As a former Eco Tpurism operator in Banff I had a passenger on a tour of mine who was a paraplegic from a moose accident with their car. Moose having such long legs if hit by an aerodynamic car will unfortunately crash into the compartment of the vehicle.
Sad fact, 15.7 Canadians die from moose/vehicular incidents every year and 100s are permanently injured in such accidents. When you see a yellow warning road sign showing a picture of a moose, Slow Down. This is a known moose/vehicle high incident area.
Hi Danielle! Been watching your videos way back during pandemic and you've been doing awesome!!!
I remember the most surprising thing about my time in the UP was that I saw wolves like, three separate times, but no moose.
I was with my father and family when we were hunting when I was younger and one of the group had a tag for a Moose, and brought it in; I've never forgotten how huge he was, and I found his hooves quite odd compared to other cervines, as they have a rubbery pad towards the back.
Awesome!! Moose are some of my favorite animals. They're just so massive and bizarre!
Wow! You hit the moose jackpot! That is so cool. I've only seen moose once in my life and that was at a zoo. They are crazy huge!
I supposed to object, but it rang so well, you saying moosebuck.
These are the first moose you've ever seen? Wow. I have seen more than that.
I haven't done five in a day...
I love Danielle's videos. I always get a good chuckle while getting educated ❤from Brisbane Australia 🇦🇺
Does Aranya still work with the show? I liked her
Yes! We have a en episode coming out with her next week :)
"do we have moose insurance" I love that Canadians need moose insurance
Mumble years ago, I took it into my head to hitch to Alaska. One of the things I learned is Highway 1 is a dirt road in some places. Another was ELK ARE HUGE. I was foraging for some food, and saw one. Went behind a tree to watch him. That sucker had to be 8 feet at the shoulder. While I'd never try to walk up to a moose, I'd sure as heck never even consider an elk.
as always great video! thanks Danielle, much Love from Germany
Amazing animals! Thank you guys for all the work you put in!👍
From now on Canada day will be a day away from my birthday. Thank you Danielle for your neverending love of the animal kingdom. I hope to visit Canada for a mountain hiking/animal watch some day.
Moose velvet coming off:
Horror writers, metal bands, dark fantasy game designers: BOY do I got an idea for a sort of corrupted-nature-monster design
"Moose Butts" would be an excellent name for a band.
As you can tell by my name I love moose and I’m so happy you guys did another mini Doku
This channel exemplifies excellent prep and execution. Thank you.
Yay! Moose again - I *love* moose! Great video!
ive lived in the US my whole life and spent half of that in Texas, and yet i've somehow managed to see moose before Danielle has? Thats crazy
Such a cute introduction with the horns.
Missing same fun facts about them. They are actually great swimmers, and they can dive too! 😮 Quite deep actually. Eating seaweed.
Oh my gosh I'm so happy; Moose are one of my favorite animals!
The elusive wild Dylan with a rare "rear" shot. You are so lucky to get that on film
That was amazing to watch! Thank you!
This reminds me of “ The Great North” when a moose falls in love with their van to lick the road salt 😂
Can you make a video about the binturong of you haven’t yet?Not many people know about this super cute animal!
Blimey! Watching the moose shake off its antlers shocked me. I never gave any thought as to how deer lose them.
They must need enormous amounts of calcium during the antlers' growing phase. Do they nibble on previous years' antlers and/or eat calcium rich plants?
Licking salt off the road was interesting, but I wonder how the various chemicals in bitumen may affect them?
We went to Wyoming last year and this was our excitement when we saw bears and Bison. We hoped to see moose, but didn’t. Still a great trip through
Great video, thank you love your enthusiasm and love that you love what you are doing
This was so interesting, so beautiful and now I have a lot more appreciation for moose.
They're so majestic and fuzzy!!!
I just love Moose
Excelente! Me conmovieron mucho estos bellos animales.
Gracias Animalogic.
I can't believe you saw so many meese in one go! I'm so jealous I'm from Southern Ontario, living in Sudbury, I've yet to see a moose
Congratulations Danielle on seeing your first moose ever.
While driving the HWY through Jasper a Grizzly with 2 cubs breached the hill onto the roadway. Very cool and was happy to be driving rather than being parked.
Amazing video thanks for sharing
You should do a tour of the canadian side of the great lakes! I would love to learn what animals live there.
That thumbnail is straight out of a horror movie.
The European counterpart is kind enough to visit my garden now and then :-)
And do drive careful when there's moose around, those accidents are nasty no matter how much insurance you've got.
never been this early, but aaaaa yessss new episode! AMD MEESE!
Happily, I don't smell the moose pee, lol
One night I was driving along a road in northern central Vermont, A mother and her calf was crossing on my side, and I noticed too late to stop, so I went around since the other side was clear.
They're almost invisible at night, unless you're looking for the road side reflectors, and so on, and are sufficiently familiar with the road that you can spot the difference between norm clear road, and obstructed.
It was the lack of reflection that mainly gave it away, but the mother's udder was another clue.
This video was amusing. Thank you.
It's been more than 20 years, but I will never forget my last moose encounter. Up about 15', oiling the side of a house, I hear a terrific racket. Look over my shoulder to see two calves running into each other & every aspen in their path. Right behind them, watching the idiot ape on a ladder, MOM. She kept an eye on me without breaking stride until the calves were on the other side of the house.
AWESOME VIDEO!!! love it
I like how they thought it was informative to film and put in a moose peeing lmao
Love your stuff
I believe the science fiction term is “Meese”. I could be wrong but I read a book one time called “a wocket in my pocket” by a Dr Seuss. He was a doctor and I never saw him use the word “mooses”
I first learned about this in Sarah Palin’s “Alaska Moose Meat Cookbook”. She has a wonderful recipe for antler soup.
amazing elk pictures
My spirit animal
Once when I was going to school in the bus during the time of autumn I wasn't paying attention outside and then the bus stopped and I wondered why and then I saw two moose like 5 feet away from the bus it was scary as heck
Thanks for mkn my day with this vid....
I'm nearly 40 years old and had no idea moose shed their antlers.
Lol most Canadian day ever!
It’s weird to see a Canadian freaking out about moose. haha
I lived most of my life in northern Alberta, not far from Edmonton and jasper, moose are just a part of life up there.
My Lord. Absolutely spectacular. So amazingly beautiful
You're so lucky to catch the shed on the drone
