"On a hike in Cape Bretton, Nova Scotia a moose trapped us on a hike. It got really close, eventually we scared it off, but if it had attached it would have been curtains!"

    That's NOT a giant moose. That's a moose. They're all that humongous.

    As a kid growing up in Anchorage, AK, we were wisely taught to stand totally still if we ever encountered a moose. I'll never forget the feeling of one sniffing the top of my head, me standing as still as I could in the middle of the road. Just another day walking to school in Alaska.

    Amazing how something that huge just goes into the woods and disappears without a sound.

    It was a Canadian moose. It was very polite.

    That wasn't a giant moose...it's just a regular size moose.
  • Close enough to hear him breath. If he's fogging up the lens that might be your last picture.

    25 years ago, my wife and I were hiking on the Skyline trail, and we could smell the moose but couldn't see it. Moments later, he crossed in front of us, maybe 10 feet away. Later on the same hike, we were thrilled to see Pilot whales swimming in the ocean. Quite an adventure!

    On Moose network: Miniature people annoying me while eating with bleeping camera.

    There are those who get a thrill out of gunning one of these down. And get nothing from watching it as we're doing now. He's incredible.

    I always forget how big they are. I’m in awe every time I see one.
  • @rxonmymind8362
    See how quickly it disappears without a trace. Makes one wonder what's watching us sometimes. If mother nature doesn't want to be seen them it doesn't.

    i was in norway with my mom and we rented a cabin somewhere in the woods. it had an outdoor pool with a wood burning stove as a heater and i was just chilling in it when suddenly a moose emerged from between the trees and just stood like 10 feet away from me. it was incredible, we just looked at each other for what felt like an eternity until it disappeared back into the forest. i will never forget that experience.

    To the people filming: thx for being so respectful to that magnificent beast.
  • @Sassafras30
    I’ve never seen a moose live and now understand how they and cars usually end up a cropper. Wow. This fella is impressive.
  • @sonjaleesloth
    Wow! This was a moment in life that is unforgettable. No amount of money compares to encountering such magnificence!!
  • After dinner one evening, I walked away from our tent into the woods of western Canada. I walked directly next to a moose. I looked down,stayed still and softly said nursery rhymes. He walked across the little path and disappeared. That was fifty years ago. I can still feel my heart stop.
