Close enough to kiss a moose?

by

Hmmm I guess this guy knows this moose pretty well … I mean, I think he’s giving the moose a kiss!

This photo reminds me of the moose that used to come and peek in our cottage windows. We’d visit the cottage on the weekend and at least one day each weekend (only for about a year) that we were there we’d have an interesting peeping Tom peering in at us.

The moose usually arrived at breakfast time. We’d all be sitting around the table eating our breakfast and a shadow would pass by the window, just feet from where we were sitting. We’d look up and see a moose looking in at us. I wonder if our food looked good to him or he was just curious about us?

Either way, he was huge, and moose can be ornery … so we never dared to go out and visit with him.

This is a photo that my wife took a year or so ago. We were driving in downtown Toronto along Lakeshore BLVD and I believe this mural is painted on the side of the Redpath sugar refinery building.

It’s a gigantic mural. The building is at least 100 feet tall and 50 feet wide if not even bigger and the mural covers the extent of one whole side of the building. It’s beautiful!

If that’s not original I don’t know what is!

Massive burger

That has to be one of the biggest burgers that I’ve ever seen! We have a place here in Toronto called Dangerous Dan’s and they make a huge burger too.

I think it’s called the colossal burger or the colon buster, but I think it’s a bit smaller than the thing in this guys hands.

Look at it! It’s bigger than the guys head, and I don’t think that’s a small guy.

The paper towels and the pitchers of water I can understand but I’m still trying to figure out the helmet.

Could he be wearing it just in case he gets so full he passes out? Concussion protection?

Single college moose seeks fun, attractive moosette

A moose that wandered onto the Northern Michigan University campus and broke a dormitory window might have been looking for love in all the wrong places.

City police chased the animal away one evening last month after the incursion at Magers Hall, Detective Capt. Mike Angeli said. It was unclear whether the moose got inside the building.

“It’s not unusual for a moose to do something like this now,” said Dean Beyer, a Michigan Department of Natural Resources wildlife biologist who has an office at Northern Michigan. “We’re in the middle of the mating rut right about now.

“Moose, especially a young bull moose, will move long distances,” he said. “They could be searching for a cow to mate with, or simply be a young bull dispersing after being chased away from its herd and looking for a new home range.”

We’ve had experience with moose wandering over to our cottage and looking in the windows, but none have ever managed to get inside. Moose are huge animals, I certainly wouldn’t want one wandering around my rooms, particularly if it were rutting season.
