Moose cam

Beletseri · 01-02-2004, 04:29 PM

A virtual friend of mine set up her camera to record the moose that she feeds in her yard. She's way up in the mountains around Park City Utah. They've been having a lot of snow this years.

There are two males that stay around. The one with the bigger rack is Primo (he's the boss) and the smaller one is Ferdinand. They tend to hang together although Moose tend to be solitary.

Cool. I see one of them out there now.

It's comin' right for us!

That's great. I got the same picture then the moose moved over in the next one. On the next refresh the moose had lay down half out of the picture to the left.

He's snoozing there now! The one that guy put up looks like a horse though.

Beletseri · 01-02-2004, 07:19 PM

I think the cam is down for the night and that was just the last image before it went dark.

Pook has a couple of feeders - manger like things - set up in that area so what you see in the horse-like pose is the moose with his head down eating.

Ah, 2 meeses.

Beletseri · 01-03-2004, 09:41 AM

The one on the right is Primo, he's got the bigger rack.
Here's another view

THAT'S SO FUCKING COOL I CAN'T STAND IT!

I am jealous of your friend. very jealous.....and look at all the lumber!

Beletseri · 01-03-2004, 11:22 AM

You should see her house.

xoxoxoBruce · 01-03-2004, 11:22 AM

You're warped LJ. That's not lumber, that's forest. Forest and meat.

ndetroit · 01-03-2004, 02:16 PM

very cool use of a webcam..

hmmm... she's feeding the moose when they come to her yard ... is that a great idea... or even legal?

(not to be the total bastard poster...

I think the legal issue goes something like "this is my property, I can put stuff on it if I want. If the meese come and eat it, how am I supposed to stop them? They're meese!"

Beletseri · 01-03-2004, 03:50 PM

She's two miles from the closest year round house. No one cares if she feeds them. The only thing I worry about is that they get too tame and decide to trample her to get to the food she is carrying to them. Actually, these two would have normally gone to a lower elevation by now to have better browse but because she feeds them they camp out in her yard.

Why wouldn't it be legal for her to feed them? Unless she was baiting them for hunting that is.
