The unusual beasts of burden pictured here were a pair of moose, hand-raised by owner Peachy Prouden. The photo was taken at Athabasca Landing, Alberta in 1898.
Actually “Bogtrotter” was an old term that the British used for Irish people. Oh, nice moose. Lived in Alaska for 30+ years and we had alot up there, bigger than the lower 48 variety I understand. But only recall ever hearing of one that was broke to harness. LOL
