When the new antlers grow back in the spring the velvet covering contains the blood flow to feed the new growth until the antlers are fully grown in the fall when they rub the velvet off and the antlers dry and get harder and they use them to fight
Oh how interesting! I had no idea they shed the "velvet" . Thanks for posting it. Very cool video. How can 46 people not like this video??? What is more beautiful than nature? SMH
A moose full of testosterone is like an elephant full of testosterone. They KNOW they're the biggest boys around and they'll happily take the opportunity to kick some human's ass if he rubs him the wrong way. He doesn't have anything against humans PERSONALLY... but he's a giant horned animal who's extremely moody and has a lot to prove. He's not your "friend". Fascinating to watch.... from a safe distance!
All cervids (the clade containing deer) shed their antlers. They have calcified cores covered in skin, but these fall off after the rut. They regrow the antlers before the next rut, hence this behaviour. They scrape the skin off as the core calcifies, giving them bony antlers. That is one of the distinguishing characteristics of the clade. Bovids (antelope/cows,bison), on the other hand, have bony antlers that are permanent.
here we see Sam Winchester eating what he usually eats: leaves. Dean is grabbing a burger. Now he is scratching his head to think because of all the hard research. Dean is once again eating a burger. Now he attempts to finally love himself, but there is something blocking the way. He decides to deal with his emotions the Dean way, suppress them and get more food. He suddenly discovers an internal conflict and deals with it accordingly, suppressing again. Now he dreams about having a future with jess and having a baby moose. Suddenly he wakes up and realizes there is a spoon in his mouth courtesy of Dean. The moose is mad.
Why do the antlers have velvet and why does it come off? Is it like a snaked shedding so the antlers grow larger? And do the antlers have nerves that would make it painful as the velvet comes off?
BlastFromYesterday The antlers grow new every year and the velvet supplies them with blood as they grow. The antlers are very sensitive until the velvet comes off in mid-august and the bone hardens. The antlers fall off every year around Easter time.
Blast - its the fastest growing bone in the animal kingdom - they shed every year and regrow in 12 to 17 weeks - they will be pretty much the same shape every year but usually with the addition of an extra tine - if you look at the antlers, you can see where the veins were in the velvet which is blood filled tissue - amazing aren't they
Ah, thank you. I hadn’t noticed that you were filming from higher angle, so what I was trying to see as sky was actually a lake. A very, very still lake. Cheers!
+Unisex_ baby When they rub of the velvet I think the antlers are a little sensitive until the bone hardens up in a few days. When the antlers fall off in the winter they are just happy to get rid of the extra weight.
Idk why I'm watching moose videos right now, but I'm intrigued. I knew about the antlers but I never noticed that their 'beards' are actually weird ball sack things and NOT just hair
I'm laughing and a bit sorry for asking what may seem such a stupid question, but it occurred to me while watching a few videos of bull moose going at each other and after a bit has become quite a curiosity. Well here goes....if you are nearby 2 bull moose when they are going at each other and are in the height of it after having locked up together....if you were say within 50 feet of them and jumped out and bolted straight at them yelling and growling at them as loud as you could what would happen? Would they jump and run for their lives, would one or both turn and chase you down and kill you, would they both just stop and stare at you, what would happen? Thanks much
Thanks very much for the reply. I think your right, more so by how close the person was as they first started charging in. It'd be lunacy, seeing such huge critters running for their lives from such a bird brain human lol. You have a great weekend!
Rich Schreiner What ever you do keep your distance from these animals at all times. I have seen nearly a hundred moose in New Hampshire and Maine. However, I have never seen them in battle but it does not matter. They are very unpredictable and can be very dangerous. They may seem very docile at times, but can turn deadly in an instant. Moose can weigh over a thousand pounds, they are very fast and have very sharp hooves which they will use to stomp you to death. Make no mistake, keep a safe distance and if they do charge you, RUN !!!! and try to find the nearest clump of trees or large object to hide behind for protection. Like I said, extremely unpredictable at all times and may even charge you and try and kill you for no reason whatsoever.
+E. Nieminen I live in Idaho and go hunting very often and see moose. it is not rare to have what we call spoons here. every moose has those. but a very good question.
I hunt these monsters myself, for food not for sport! And if you hear a large bull barreling towards you you are literally shaking and have your gun up, it is a very nice experience but if I saw one of those bulls broadside I would have a nice winter

Man, the moose is such an amazing and incredible animal.
+Daniel Babineau I agree

Richard Flacid cmon man
Daniel Babineau you are right moose are amazing
The shot of the 2 bull moose with that wooded scene was one of the most beautiful country scenes ive ever seen omg
Thanks, it was rare for me also

Great footage , this is on my bucket list.
@@steveo4601 .
Great info and footage. Thanks!
That's an interesting look at how quickly they go from relaxed to full rutt. Cool video.
Oh how interesting! I had no idea they shed the "velvet" . Thanks for posting it. Very cool video. How can 46 people not like this video??? What is more beautiful than nature? SMH
I've always had this random love for Moose.
FROM Scotland thankyou ..

Best moose video Ive seen yet...

Don't compare The Mighty Moose to That weak ass Elephant. Maybe you wanted to say Rhino or Hippo
@@prehistoriccreature1800 That's funny considering Elephants make a game out of Stomping hippos and Rhinos
@@Argos-xb8ek
Dumbass... It's the other way around
Rhinos and hippos make a game out of stomping those weak ass elephants
elephants are friendly to humans
@@prehistoriccreature1800 you're laughable
Bad Sammy, sit, stay, good moosey. (Starts Fighting) Crowley, Squirrel, the moose is fighting again

Never seen a moose, but i like them.
+TheGamerOfSamness (Evarderp) Thanks
Leave that moose alone! He's just saving people and hunting things! Nothing wrong with doing the family business...
Castiel Winchester Tgis is why I even came here 😂 these spn comments
He's just recording the moose bruh. Is recording things a crime now???
Let me guess your 6 years old
Why do the antlers have velvet and why does it come off? Is it like a snaked shedding so the antlers grow larger?
And do the antlers have nerves that would make it painful as the velvet comes off?

Why were their antlers blood-stained?
wow so cute
Really nice video, interesting. Good stuff.
It was a rare opp for us, glad you enjoyed it
Nice video - was great to see the progression from velvet to hardened antlers! Hope to actually see a real moose one day.
+itssugarfree I'm sure you will
These things are huge...
Damn... I came for the comnents. I'm not disappointed 😂
SPN?
Nickolaus cage?
1:38 what exactly is going on with the background of this shot?
Fall colors reflecting in the lake at sunrise
Ah, thank you. I hadn’t noticed that you were filming from higher angle, so what I was trying to see as sky was actually a lake. A very, very still lake. Cheers!
Does it hurt the moose when they shed their antlers? It looks pretty painful lol

What is velvet?

Mooses with that type of plate antlers are rare right? I heard the ones with stick type antlers are much more common at least in finland
I believe these are Western moose -- the type they have in the US and Canada. They almost always have the big plate antlers here. :)
+E. Nieminen I live in Idaho and go hunting very often and see moose. it is not rare to have what we call spoons here. every moose has those. but a very good question.
thx for explaining~~nice video~~
MAJESTIC
I hunt these monsters myself, for food not for sport! And if you hear a large bull barreling towards you you are literally shaking and have your gun up, it is a very nice experience but if I saw one of those bulls broadside I would have a nice winter
I love the bloody antlers.
+Joey Daigle only happens 1 day a year
Does losing their velvet hurt them? Also, why do u think they rub it off on trees and whatnot, do u think it itches?
I believe it is very itchy and they want it off fast
I've seen bull elk all bloody like this they really hit hard
Sparrin', playin'
Hello i am Brasil oh beautiful animal
