Bad Ass WallaceWonder of Nature
While I own enough guns & ammo to kill anything on the face of the earth, I still go limp at photo's of mother nature at her best;
BTW, if one is a moose what do you call twins - mooses or mices?
Ah - the English Language ...
I believe the plural of Moose is...Moose
More than two moose is a hunting season...
Perhaps the Northern Hemisphere moosehunters amongst us may have more details ( no , not Far Canel and his air rifle..
)

rugeruserBAW, that's the difference between a hunter and a shooter. Respect. I know what you mean.
More than one moose is called dinner .....for several.
The old line about where to shoot a moose is near the road. Or never shoot a moose while hunting alone. If there are no other hunters to give a helping hand carry your knife and fork.

Bad Ass WallaceHere's one, the biggest set of cow horns on the planet as recorded in Guinnes Book.
Looks like a bit of computer touching up to me. If not ,then find out what its been eating and sprinkle some around the Cape Buff heards and watch the monster trophy heads come in.
This cow must buy her headgear at the same shop as Madonna used to buy her bra's.
I worry about you BAW , you seem to have a fixation for the female bovine . Mate , you aussies are meant to shag sheep , not cows , dont tell Far Canel or he will be buying a house cow and kicking his missus out ....
Guys, as a hunter in Moose country I can tell you with some conviction that those 2 little ones are called"veal".

maxmanLeave it to Nitro to pull one like this out!
The correct term is meese while they are still young.
Once they are old enough to shoot they become all moose.
Which reminds me of the Scotsman who was visiting his friend in Canada.
He woke up one morning, and opened the curtains. Right there outside his window was a moose, an animal he has never seen before.
He ran out to get his friend, screaming: "There is great big animal standing outside my window!"
His friend said: "Don't worry about it. It is only a moose"
"A MOOSE! Only a MOOSE? if this is the size of your mices, how big are yer cats?"
