is when baby moose are born and one reason I have not been walking. Mothers attack if their babies are threatened. Here is a pic of twins born just last week. Excuse mama's butt but seeing as she was faced that way, my friend could get the pic without being charge!

Wonderful photo, thank you!

My DH got charged by a cow moose once while he was hunting.

What a beautiful picture! I just saw a thing on TV about how dangerous moose really are. I still love them, though. I will just give them that much more respect, should i ever have the pleasure of seeing one.

they are wonderful my favourite animal I have only seen one in real life had a disasterous day trying to find a new quilt shop got lost 3 times when I got there it was monday and they were closed but on the way back a moose crossed the road infront of me and I watch him for about 10 minutes it turned out to be the best day.I live in ma so we dont see them too often
