The person who took this video said that;

"It was a warm day and mother was lying down next to the shed for a couple of hours. We finally realized that she was overheated so I put the sprinkler out for her and her little one discovered it first.  I wasn't nervous because the mother is a neighborhood moose and has been coming to our yard for years with her little ones. Neighborhood moose are generally comfortable with people unless their little ones are brand new."

Moose, some of the most vicious mammals on the North American continent, not to be trifled with.

Yet somehow I'd rather have a loose moose for a neighbor, than a chained pit bull.

My miniature dachshund was very good at predicting earthquakes.

He’d get seriously weird the day preceding a shaker.

I'm not so sure. Yes, Moose don't make a lot of noise, but they do vocalize from time to time and it's LOUD. During autumn rut, they are fiercely dangerous. They're huge too. Most people don't understand how big those bulls get. Think thoroughbred with big-ass antlers. And, a cow with a calf is also mean has hell.

That will leave some divots in the lawn.

We’re in moose country here north of Coeur d’Alene. We get occasional visits. They’re interesting to watch, but we give ‘em a wide berth.

Yuo don’t mess with the moose.

Hey, maybe the home owner can figure out a way to put the thing on a coin-operated timer . . . put a coin-and-dollar-bill-changer next to it . . . .

Damn straight. Not to mention that I wouldn’t have a neighbor defending the moose and telling me he was always good and never did that before, after attacking me.

Real cute. Wife and I saw a babe crossing the road a couple weeks ago just north of here. All legs. lol.

>”Moose, some of the most vicious mammals on the North American continent, not to be trifled with.”

Yup, you got that right. Real cute, from a GREAT distance. Never had a run-in and sure as hell dont want one.

By the way, ever been to Isle Royale out in Lake Superior? Only large mammals on the island are wolves and moose. We spent about a week out there on our honeymoon. Very cool.

A buddy of mine used to have a couple manatees that would come to his dock if he turned on his fresh water hose. You could stick the hose right in their mouth.

Not quite as risky as a moose.
