Moose in the yard

At about 11:00 this morning, a young moose wandered into the yard to snoop around and take a siesta. Thought I share some photos. Sorry if they are too dark. The sun hadn't come up when he decided to take a nap. Pepper is monitoring the situation from the upstairs window and Halo is watching from downstairs.

I was too slow to get a photo of it, but he just lifted his front hooves and jumped over without any problem! The side fence is 6 feet, but the back fence is about 5 feet. He came over the back fence. He walked the higher fence for a while like he was looking for a way over, but he didn't even attempt it. He's still there chewing his cud. Been almost 2 hours now. :D

Wow! How cool..

That is SO cool!!!

I want to move to Alaska and have a moose in my backyard! Thank you so much for sharing those pictures!

How very COOL!!! :eek:

How long did he stay?

Mr. Moose jumped the fence again (after leaving behind some "nuggets" for us to use as fertilizer) :rolleyes: He left a little after 3:00 p.m. when the school bus came by and scared him. He wandered off into the 40-acre swamp behind our yard and was last seen chewing on a birch branch. :D

That is soooooooo cool!
He's so cute. Never see anything like that in gross over-populated Florida!

I've always wanted to see a moose! There's tons of them in Maine, but I've yet to see one...*sigh* someday! Great pictures, thanks for sharing them with us! :) :) :)

That is so cool.
I never met anybody that had a pet moose. ;)

WOW! Isn't that awesome!
