Thanks, hope to see you today.😁

Thank you, moose are certainly interesting critters.

Thank you so kindly Aaron.

Thank you, it was a fabulous day to be outside.

Thank you, they did put on a great show.

Thank you for watching and commenting. He is an amazing animal.

Thank you for watching, it was certainly a day to be remembered.

You are correct.

Thank you very much, it was a fantastic day to be outside and not get stopped.

Thank you so much, it was an incredible experience.

😁

It was a little unnerving.

Yes, I got a charge of adrenaline out of that one.

Thank you.

Thank you so much for the kind words.

The rut certainly has an effect on them.

Thank you, he is a real dandy bull. 🫎

Thank you for watching.

Thank you. He is on the young side of a dominate bull, I’d like to estimate he has 3 more years as the lead bull in the area.

Thank you.

thank you for watching, it was in the Anchorage area.

😂

Thank you, it was a bit crazy.

Thank you. This video was taken near Anchorage. I don’t recall seeing power lines in the video, but there are power lines in the area.

I do not have discount codes, but I will reach out to them to find out.

Yeah, that was a wild one.

Thank you for the kind words, and for watching.

Thank you, I think the Nat Geo people are probably a little smarter than me though.🤔

I know, but I don’t think that I’m cursed. 🤞🏽

Thank you. Our moose population is down, we’ve had two really rough winters

Thank you very much. I think he and I are still friends.😁

Thank you for watching.

Thank you, they go bonkers over a fresh rut pit.

I’ll be trying to avoid repeating that event.

Thank you for watching, they are amazing animals.

Thank you.

Yes, if that doesn’t get your heart rate up, nothing will.

I haven’t seen Left Hook all season, but some friends of mine saw him a couple weeks ago.

Thank you.

Thank you John. It’s been a minute, are you still in the Anchorage area? I’ve been so busy these last few months that I’ve lost track of everything.

@@RaisedinAlaska Yes Sir I am still on the southwest side of Anchorage and still working for Atlee Dodge and enjoying Alaska, just haven't got out much..Counting the days ( months) till I get my residency..lol

Thank you, it was a little bit nerve-racking.

Thank you very kindly.

Thank you, he is a pretty amazing animal.

Thank you for watching.

I took this video in Alaska.

Thank you, it was a great day to be in the way back.

Thank you. As it turned out, it was more adventure than I was looking for, but it was a great day to be outside.

He didn’t come after me too far. Once I turn and started running, he gave up. I think it was just a dominance thing.

Thank you for watching, it was wild day.

I suspect you are correct.

Thank you, it was an exhilarating day to be outside.

Thank you for the very kind words.

Thank are tough.

Thank you. It was a fabulous outing with one minor set back.

Thank you Shane.

Certainly closer than i like. Thank you for watching.

Thank you.

I felt lucky after the encounter.

I was so wrapped up in the moment that I did not apply the proper amount of caution or watch for the signs. He gave me signals, but I did not heed his warnings.

Yes he is, the kind of monster dreams are made of. 😁

He was pawing away the sod so he will be down to fresh dirt and then they pee in the dirt and work to get that mixture of urine and dirt on their bodies, it’s like moose cologne.

@@RaisedinAlaska Ha, ha…moose cologne. Thanks for the description.

@@tky2289 There is a better example at 6:35 in the video just before all the cows go crazy and things get nuts.

I have better glass/lens since I filmed this video. That said, frequently there’s so much brush in the way that you have to close to get good footage.

@@RaisedinAlaska stay safe and keep up the good work

Thank you.

Really enjoyed this video. Thx

@@GVH1305 Thank you very much.

He is a dandy.

They were crazy.🥰

You are correct. I use the words as synonyms: however, the words do not mean the same thing. When I was editing the video, I noticed that I used the wrong word in the field, but by then it was too late to correct. Thank you for watching.

I suspect that it probably would. Last fall I was charged in close quarters by a huge grizzly bear and thankfully it works for that.

@@RaisedinAlaska yes!!! But some same that the bear spray will attract Bears as well. Also there are videos of bear spray that did not work to stop a bear and the man got killed! Park Ranger in yellowstone a few years back. Plus other videos too! I also would keep a good 500 sidearm with me if I were you!! Back up!

Yes, that would be a very bad day.

Hope you guys in NL get govt money to trim forest near the highways. Too many good people dying from moose collisions.

Bison are on my bucket list, although there’s not very many around here.

He is a real stud. 💪🏽

He is a real dandy.

Please say you didn't kill him

@@adachilders7798 He will be in several upcoming videos that are in production. 🎉

Thank you for watching.

He is a real dandy. I filmed this in an area that currently does not allow bulls to be hunted, but there is a cow season.

That are big animals, glad you survived that one.

Yes, the tundra is horrible to walk on and certainly worst to pack out meat.

I’d call it dumb luck (I really had no business there, I was dumb).

You are correct. When I was editing this video afterwards, I heard that and hoped nobody would notice. I frequently use the terms interchangeably, but they are not.

He is an amazing animal.

Moose make a unique sound, the cows frequently make a whine sound and the bulls will grunt. There are examples of both these sounds in the video and the bull grunts can be heard clearly around 8:28.

​@@RaisedinAlaska What an amazing opportunity to witness this in the wikd. I've never seen this so up vl8se abd personal before. What a unique introduction to your channel !!!! So hi there , from a Nan in Aussie, I follow a whole host of on and off grid Alaskan homesteaders/ cabin dwellers. Question about the moose, as I was born & raised one of 7 siblings of dairy farmers in New Zealand I'm used to herd animals. Does one bull service a whole herd of cows or just one, of a few ? And does the bull stay with the herd year round? Were you quite close to film all that or do you just have a high quality zoom in camera?? I'm really impressed with my first video watch of your channel.

@@heatherclayton-callaghan4270 Great questions: Moose don’t herd up the most of the year. In the spring in through the summer to is common to find cows with their calves. The bulls, more often than not, are or alone. In late summer, the bulls may form small bachelor groups, but the cows are generally still alone or with their calves. Late summer and early fall the bulls will shed their velvet and begin to spar and establish a hierarchy of dominance. As the breeding season nears, the cows will gather up, in traditional breeding grounds, and bulls will hang out with the cows. The dominant bull will breed as many cows as he’s able or until another bull dethrone him. After the breeding season is done, it’s not uncommon for bulls to form back into bachelor. Cows are generally more on their own, unless there’s great feed in the area.

@@RaisedinAlaska Thankyou so much for such an in-depth, informative reply to my questions. So greatly appreciative of the information and your time. I shall be watching more of your channel now I'm subscribed. May your channel grow even more and you and your loved ones be greatly blessed by the Creator of this enthralling country in which you reside & thrive in. Again, I thankyou. Until your next video, it's over & out from this Aussie Nan🇦🇺🤗💞🙏👌👍✌️👏🇺🇸

@heatherclayton-callaghan4270 thank you very much for your kind words.

You are correct.

Good luck, it will be a trip of a lifetime.

Thank you very much.

I don’t think he bred any cows that day, but shortly there after he did.
