  • Momma Moose grows a bit impatient with her baby moose crossing the road. You could tell she was ready to start counting down, and when she gets to 1, that's when things get serious.

      You'd be wise to wait for such a large animal to cross the road. If you drive into something like that it's going straight into the windshield and could kill you, very dangerous at night as this is when most fatal accidents happen.

    You don’t realize how big a moose can be till you see one in person. I was traveling on so called “ Moose Alley “ from Skowhegan.Maine to Jackman ,Maine and had the pleasure of see a group of 4 moose cross the road in front of me. They hesitated on the road for a moment, looked both ways and then wondered on. Two of them had to stand at least 11 feet at the top of there backs. Drive slow up in them there woods Please

    This is SO great on so many levels -- the way the mother kept checking the cars ... the way she entered the edge of the woods and then came back to encourage her young 'un ... and the way that little moosie high-stepped across the what-the-heck-is-this-stuff pavement. (If you've ever put protective boots on your dog, you'll see this same walk the first time he/she wears them). I've lost a lot of faith in our species' ability to either feel or demonstrate compassion, so seeing drivers waiting for this little passage to play out was, to say the least, heart-warming. Thanks for posting.

      I agree completely with everything you said.
      I have rescued so many different animals/pets because of an increasing lack of care and respect that animals deserve.
      Given long enough you can form strong bonds with ANY animal and to me to interact and engage with another species is such a honour.
      It's also why i became a vegetarian after seeing how animals are treated particularly in the middle east. I understand it happens everywhere but i was exposed to some shocking displays whilst serving in Iraq
      Nice to know others are as compassionate

    Huge kudos to the drivers and bystanders for not interfering or getting out of the car.
    Female moose with calves are one of the most dangerous animals in the world. They attack anyone they view as a threat and just being in the vicinity of a calf with the mom nearby can cause an attack.
    Respect them from a distance and let the moose care for themselves.

To this day I will never forget how intimidating and somewhat scary it was driving past that monstrosity standing by roadside. I was fortunate it didn't move onto the road.

I stopped and watched it cross the rest of the way but if I had been distracted that would of gone down very differently. I thought it was a horse at first and was very confused why it was in the road.

    My most memorable moments in British Columbia national parks were encounters with moose.
    I was amazed at the size of these animals and the height at the shoulder of an adult was over
    6 foot. The other amazing fact I was ignorant of was their ability to hold their breath under water.
    I had no idea they could completely submerge for several minutes whilst eating plant tubers on
    the bottom of lakes. I once hiked to moose lake at sunset and was greeted by a female who had
    come down to feed in the lake, she trapped me on the wrong side of the lake side and blocked my
    route out. I took cover behind a tree and waited until almost dark before she started to completely
    submerge. I carefully timed her minutes under water and made the decision to risk my escape.
    It was wonderful and I’ll never forget the amazing experience and encounter with that majestic animal.

    The baby’s movements on the tarmac…like it was going to be stuck in mud. How very special to get to record it.

    Thanks for this-it made me laugh so much because you can EXACTLY READ what the Mama is thinking, experiencing, and trying to get across to her baby!!!!! Lololol😅

    Poor little guy couldn’t get up out of the ditch. Those little legs are just learning how to work. A really beautiful sight to witness though. 🫶
