Yes, I would think living in Mai...Hey there, Carla. Yes, I would think living in Maine would give you a view or two of Moose geographically. But if there's been a lot of development, they may have run to Canada. :D<br /><br />That's what's so unusual about having moose around our farm. Usually they stay in the parks where there's peace and quiet, no hunting, lots of trees and lakes, etc.<br /><br />The only thing we have around here is an abundance of sloughs. Those are what we called ponds in Ontario. Small bodies of water that dry up in the fall and don't come back until spring. But these have been wet years and some are staying year round. If we have them here on the prairie, though, there should be more water in the parks, too. <br /><br />Moose and people don't mix very well. Vehicles, either. I was thrown through the windshield when I was a toddler because Mom hit a moose lumbering across the road. Still have the scar on my chin. <br /><br />Thanks for the visit. :)Anita Mae Draperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16618699900826731377noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6686763395752601315.post-56515059509974752872011-11-09T17:29:24.456-06:002011-11-09T17:29:24.456-06:00How awesome, Anita! Thank you for posting your pic...How awesome, Anita! Thank you for posting your pictures and the video. I've lived in Maine for 9 years and have yet to see a Moose, in the wild that is (there is a game farm that we like to visit that has some). I know they are around here, but they are so elusive. Deer are aplenty. I love any chance to see wildlife.Carla Gadehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01793809172905144101noreply@blogger.com
