  • In Canada, more people are killed or injured in vehicular collisions with moose than by all other wildlife species combined. In Newfoundland, where moose densities are the highest in the world, there is proof that it is indeed Canada’s most dangerous animal.

    When I was a child more than 65 years ago ,I was on my way to the outhouse in early morning at the fishing camp. The ground below my bare feet began to vibrate and I could hear a oncoming animal. I ducked behind a small bush when just on the other side of that bush came a female moose being followed by her calf. The ground trembled be,ow my feet and I froze in awe....what a memory ! What a charmed childhood!

      @jungjeru3348 a moose passed within 5' or less from me. I grew up with large work horses, one of the biggest breeds, and that moose I swear was taller and made the ground vibrate as much as a trained work horse. I knew a moose was wild and I knew it was dangerous to be around a mother who had an offspring.

      When I was small, my dad used to drive semi-truck. Back then, it was no big deal to have a preschooler along, riding shotgun.
      We were driving around the north end of Lake Superior, hauling dual trailers, when we rounded a corner and encountered a big bull moose in the middle of the road. My dad swerved, missed it with the cab and first trailer, and caught its antler on the second trailer. In the side mirror, I watched it get hooked, watched its mass counteract the direction of the trailer, and watched as it got slung two to three times the height of the trailer into the air. We went into the ditch because of the twist its weight caused; the moose went into the sky. Being in a large truck, we weren't too shaken when it lurched over - but, surprisingly, neither was the moose. He got up off the pavement where he landed about the same time I got over the oddity of sitting diagonally. He tilted his head back and forth a couple of times, as if to work a kink out of his neck, looked at us, let out a huff as if to say: "Serves you right," and bounded off the road without so much as a limp.

      Same old same old. Some years back, the cod fisheries became more heavily restricted (they were being fished in a highly unsustainable fashion prior to this). The reduction to Newfoundland's primary income source caused many people to move away, to other parts of the country. However, those who remain often find it beneficial to look toward natural sustenance - gardening, hunting, wild foraging and so on. Thus, although there are fewer traditional folks about, many of them have become more avid in their hunting and so on.

    I love how most animals do ask for permission before copulation. Human males could learn from this. Lol.
    "The female indicates her willingness by ALLOWING him to come a little closer", yet he STILL "asks" by laying his head on her back.
    Again, humans can learn a thing or two from the moose and the Owl (Owl mates for life).

  • @frankG335
    @frankG335 Před rokem

    It's weird that scientists didn't understand that bears were predators, early on. Why else would they need to run 30 ft in a one second burst, have the teeth they have, etc?
    Owls have very specific patterns of dismemberment and eating of prey- they eat the head, then the liver, heart, and lungs, if there's an excess of prey.
    If there's a lot to eat, they'll eat only those organs.
    If there's a less plentiful hunt, they might swallow it whole without taking those organs first.
    But most of the time, they eat their favorite organs, which they dissect with their sensitive beak and tongue through the neck hole, then swallow the carcass while.
    The organism does what has worked for the organism all along.

I had just seen a moose crossing sign so luckily I had slowed down quite a bit and it probably saved my life because sure enough right as I was coming around a bend I see 2 massive moose walking down the middle of the road!! Such a beautiful sight, and so unbelievably huge!! If I'd had hit them I'd be a goner considering I was driving through the one road through the park and I didn't see another car for at least 2 hours before or after because it was off season and nobody was in the park...

      I have a very different view of wildlife management. For instance, the two vicious attacks on 2 year olds in Stanley Park Vancouver combined with 18 other bites since the pandemic require extermination of all the coyotes in the park. Because they all learned to prey on children. And families take their kids there to play. The local animal control people use the park as a dumping ground for coyotes caught in the city. So the population will return. But it would give the military a guerilla warfare exercise where they can use heat vision googles for a real objective.
      As it stands, park wildlife management trapped a few. So. I’m waiting till next summer and hoping human predation was eliminated, but I don’t think it was.

    • @adreabrooks11
      @adreabrooks11 Před 3 lety +1

      You may have missed this statement in the documentary, but Newfoundland is not their territory. Moose are an invasive species on the island. The region was originally caribou country - but humans created a problem (as we often do) by introducing moose in past centuries. Their population boomed, displacing the smaller caribou and playing havoc with local vegetation (and, thus, the rest of the biome) with their feeding and other behaviours. An individual moose may be "innocent," as you say; but thousands of moose are devastating.
      The hunting is, of course, primarily commercial in motivation - moose hunting provides millions in revenue each year. However, this simply means that the government provides enough licenses to keep the population even. The ecologically responsible thing to do would be to wipe them all out from Newfoundland (This is not the case on the mainland, of course; they belong there.); but the continuous income (and the benefit in providing food to people) means that they simply keep the moose numbers from growing. The logic is that the current damage has already been done; yearly hunting just keeps it from getting worse. In short, the needs of the human population makes moose a "necessary evil" in the area.
      Regarding "hurting" them: most hunters are nature-lovers, and have no wish to see animals suffer. A bullet to the heart or head is a humane way to go - particularly compared to the slower death of a bear attack, starvation or disease that they would naturally encounter. It is indeed sad to see one of these majestic creatures fall. However, the harm in *not* killing them far outweighs the harm in culling the population.

    Make wildlife bridges like in Colorado. Fence the highway up to and at the wildlife bridge. I don't need to tell you how to handle this problem. The moose don't need radio collars. If God wanted moose to have radio collars, they would have been born with them. Stop blaming the moose. Do the moose blame humans. COHABITATE. COHABITATE. COHABITATE.
