A young bull moose shedding his winter coat has been hanging around the camp and hitting the salt block. I finally got him on camera today. Hopefully, he stays here and brings in more of his friends.

They are some strange looking critters .
Looks young - yearling maybe?
Was that a trail cam or was it close enough to get it with a camera or phone?
Hawks Feather, I took those pictures through the windshield of my truck with an iphone. I also got a video of it on the dash cam. I'm putting out the game cameras later this week, if it ever warms up. The picture below is a snapshot from the dash cam video. The wide angle lens of the dash cam makes the moose look farther away than he actually is.
JohnP, it looks to be a yearling or two year old bull. His antlers are just starting to show.

You are 100% correct on the moose’s looks. They are one strange looking animal. It’s just amazing to see them going through the woods. They are pretty quiet considering their size.
A bit of a tick problem?
Thanks MI VHNTR. I enjoy seeing 'animals in the wild' images and knowing how they were taken. Looking forward to the trail cam pics.
