Hey all.
So I ended up taking a friend of mine out all day yesterday and today - he had a limid entry hunt for bull moose.
Well while we were hunting Muley bucks for him yesterday (different zone than his draw) we ran into a little mating sessions of some moose. Ill post the pics below, but basically what happened was a young moose (just too old to me legal here in BC) was doing his 'uhh-ah' sound which caught out attention. upon stalking up towards them we found there was a cow and calf, and he was chasing and attempting to mount the cow.
She wasnt too into it - he was only half her body size (apparenly size DOES matter

) Anyhow after determining that he wasnt legal, we watched and started calling them in to us. Theystarted jogging uphill to us, then suddenly from the thick timber behind them a much louder and aggressive 'uhhhhh-ahhhh' was let out - which instaltly turned them and they ran in its opposite direction.
My best guess is that it was a much mroe mature bull coming to start some trouble? Regardless we didnt get anything, but called another bull in this morning, but he never showed himself - only made some noise int he bush. A
very cool thing to see that attempted courting though!
Here is the picture of the two adult moose:
Here is a picture of the young bull chasing the cow (mounting time!)
And here is a pic of a mulie doe i stalked upto while lookin for moose last night:
hope your all having a great weekend!
