I remember the first time I saw a moose. I was on harvest, We were in North Dakota. We got done in Bismark, and went to Kelvin,ND. It was sunset, and I was standing in the stubble, and I saw something about 100 yards or so in the field. I was trying to figure out what it was. About that time, the farmer pulled up in the field. I looked at him, and I asked him what that was I was looking at. He just had a laid back answer. He was like, "moose. That's a moose. Looks like a small bull." I was like, a moose?? :shock: I couldnt believe it. I was like, it looks like the ones on tv.

Yeah there was one in ND that got confused, came from ontario, and hung around mile marker 82 on i29. I think she was hit about half a year later.

Hey Rank are you from Moose Factory? I used to live in Moosonee and take the freight canoes and drive over to Moose Factory. Been some time since I've been up that way though. I miss it at times. Drive safe everyone.

Nope. Went to college in Kirkland Lake tho. That's far enough north.

When I was in the Service we moored up in Anchorage Alaska, Had a elk get into a Fenced off. The fence was no shorter than 12 feet high. Hour later he was gone again. We tried to watch to see how it got out, but there one minute, gone the next.

There are a lot of moose here where I live in Ontario, I sometimes see them near my property in the early morning or in the evening.

I almost hit some tourists one night when I was coming home in my big truck, they were stopped in the middle of the road taking a picture of a moose.

Yes Shawnee I've seen that many times myself when heading to Cochrane or Timmins on Hwy#11. They never seem to learn. So many bends in the road up there wouldn't take much to come around a corner some time and hit someone. Drive safe everyone.
