Title: Visited a moose farm
Post by: Beldarna on August 17, 2018, 10:18:38 PM
Around two hours from my city there is this family that breed and educate on mooses. During summer it's open for visitors to come meet the mooses so we went there a couple of days ago. It was so cool! I've only ever seen them in the wild before, either distant or outside the kitchenwindow growing up. Their fur is kind of oily so my hands were all black of residue afterwards and I stank when i came home, but totally worth it. ^.^

Yes I got to feed it :heart: I fed a grown up as well, but I looked hideous on those pictures, lol, so no sharing.


Totally recommend doing it for those who have the possibility. :)

     Hold up. We have farms for moose? I’ve only seen them in the wild, but I didn’t know we made farms for them. Where is this, and where to I sign up? Sounds like you had a great time!

Sign me up too!! I've never really looked at those before. They are lovely. Thank you for posting! There is an alpaca farm near us so I'm hoping to go some time.

You don't look hideous at all!!

Wow - I didn't realise they were THAT big. I live in the Southern Hemisphere so I've never seen one in real life. Fun pics - thanks for sharing :)

Marlin, not at that picture no ;). They're pretty huge. The one I'm standing next to is a one year old female. The male in the first pic was a couple of hands taller. Yet, these ones are small compared to the North American mooses. :)

And yeah.. you're all welcome here ;).
