A man calls a moose to him, and then I witness something awesome.

Just watched a man call a moose over to him. The moose let him touch it on the nose, then it nibbled off a tree on the other side of a barbed wire fence next to him. It then trots away only to stop and return to the man who had bent the tree over the fence for it to eat.

[@elizabethlinsay9193]

I hope that sweet moose has a family to go home to. We all need someone. And maybe he will go back to look for that man. Love to all animals! xoxo

What a well behaved dog for not barking and going crazy with the moose there

That is the sweetest thing ever, I think I would had gone to the store & bought him some Moose food, he looked very hungry! Bless that man! 😇

[@thebluestplanet6768]

I like how your dog is wanting to visit the moose. So cool!

[@jonquist7089]

I like your dog. Makes me laugh when it looks over the wall.

[@kathchristian6781]

The Moose is hungry Winter can be harsh for finding food and they will seek companions of any nature to help them Much love to all x

[@PeachSt8Digger]

Fantastic video. Humanity and nature caught on tape. It's getting rare. I now have renewed hope! Thanks for sharing. It warmed my heart.

[@Gloriagal78]

I totally agree, and he did a fantastic job capturing that footage.

[@ruththomas6361]

When I lived in Anchorage it was not too uncommon to see tagged moose wandering in neighborhoods. When my oldest son was 6 or 7 he was playing outside in back of our home near Russian Jack's Spring with a couple of friends when they saw a (female) moose with what looked like a collar to them. They cautiously walked up to her and she let them pet her. My son tells it this way. "We thought she was tame because she had on a collar. When we got close we saw it was something attached to her ear, but by then we were close enough to pet her, so we did." God takes care of children and idiots, so the saying goes.

[@Research0digo]

I adore men that care for animals, I really do. Thank you for filming this.

[@caligreen4208]

That’s how you communicate with another animal, help it eat, you good , that guy is a true human from the earth 👍🌿

[@freemanontheland123]

Your dog is the awesome one, Didn't make a sound!!! The moose whisperer is incredible also. Peace to all.

[@brettpearce3755]

I am this man that wants to share how this moose became so attached to me and my work the Creekwood Inn & RV Park. As you can see it was a surprise I was video this day by a good nieghbor alaskan that I just 1 year to 8 months he said he made a video of me feeding this moose. this is a yearly calf the mother was killed on the seward highway 3 weeks to this day by a plumbing truck that could not avoid hitting the mother. this day brought tears to my eyes and my partner Cindy Sue. to see a mooose being put down. it was that night i was working and went out to walk the grounds and here was my first time me and my little partner became freinds. never did i feed it people food. trees and bushes what i feed it. the moose would love to be talk too and scratch on his noose and ears. but dinner was the menu. awesome video. all you animal lpvers would done the same.

[@brettpearce3755]

[@katkeen3116]

Amazing, but dangerous at the same time. Moose could have jumped fence. A tender moment as the moose was hungry. Something the man who filmed and man who fed will never forget. Thank you for sharing this.

[@nolawest5183]

Awww ~~~ A True Gentleman! Thanks for sharing!

[@marcusstormm7591]

I lived in Alaska for well over a decade. Most people including myself are more weary of moose than bears. But I had some encounters that were beyond unique. I had the pleasure of seeing a cow give birth. I got a bucket of rain water and actually took it to her before her 2nd was birthed. She had a big scar on her side and over the years an many interactions trust grew between us. She even allowed my dog around her & the calves. One day a friend called me & told me one of her calves was tangled in that fluorescent construction plastic fencing. My friends & a trooper were there and told me she wouldn't let anyone near the calf. The trooper said if I got into trouble he would be obligated to stop her (shoot) it was strange but as soon as she saw me she walked toward the calf, like she was leading me to it. As I took hold and started a king at the plastic the calve let out a distressed call and she took an aggressive stance. In a soft voice I just told her a few things and she stopped. She was two feet away & I could feel hurt breath. I made the last cut on the plastic and the little fella ran straight to behind her. They walked away unharmed. I was lucky to not be stomped to death. The trooper said he'd never seen that before. I quickly responded by saying, "I've never done that before". It was one of my finest hours.

[@chuckhembree6101]

I raised two sons and I always told them, if a dog doesn’t like someone, then you need to leave that person a lone also! My grandfather always told me, nature knows best !

[@brn2wld]

A long, happy healthy life to both. It is always an amazing thing to have a wild creature have enough trust in a human to eat from his hand.

[@truthspeaker12]

they do trust humans and they know from body language if he is kind or aggressive.

[@leticiabradley349]

That's a good thing to interact with this gentle beautiful moose.

[@lannalane4247]

No it isn't, a moose that trusts humans is at risk for being a moose shot by a hunter.

I helped a bull elk forage on a tree by pulling a branch lower. It was taller than me and I am 6.3 It walked right up to my camp and I just sat still talking to it softly, finally got up very slowly to do this. About that time a family in a car came driving around the camp area. Someone out there has a photo of me doing this! (To be clear, I could reach higher than it could stretch its neck. BIG guy! )

In New York too. A moose crossed the ice on the Mohawk River and ran through a snow football game, jumped over a Jeep and went back across the river. Shout out to Schenectady!

[@wehavealwaysbeenanointed4929]

When I was about 5-6 years old my Dad likes to get up around 5:30 is to make coffee, then he usually goes back to bed for bit until it's done. Well one spring morning, my dad wakes me up, and says, come and see the moose, I just saw it cross our street, and went over to the apartments. I put on my robe, and jacket and boots, and followed my dad across the street, and behind the apartment buildings, there was the giant female moose. She must have wander up from the river valley, and followed her nose. I grew up in Riverbend, and suburb of south side Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. The capital of Alberta. Highly populated. We have the largest inner city River valley, in the world. I remember, always seeing deer, beaver lots of wildlife in the forest, right behind my house. But the moose, I will never forget. Fish and Wildlife, ended up knocking out the Moose, and brought her back to the River valley. End of story. Thanks for the share! That man feeding the Moose, must be the Moose whisperer. He's super brave for doing that, they are dangerous, any wildlife are dangerous. Wow cool though.

[@johnrobison3691]

I live in the middle of a small Utah town and I get huge deer in my yard all year. One was sleeping in my gazebo when my brother went out back and they scared the crap out of each. :-)

[@thisthatandtheotherchan5548]

[@thatlindgirlinutah5829]

I live in Tooele and we see deer strolling up & down Main St. all the time during the winter. Many people leave their gardens open for the deer to mosey in and scrounge for tasty scraps.

When moose calf grown up around human population areas, they are used to human contact. But in general, still be careful around bull Moose. Always unpredictable, and dangerous.

[@miroslavzima8856]

I´m not affraid of big animals...but I would keep distance from all wildlife (no matter if less or more dangerous).

[@dianeallen28]

I love what you did and I agree - animal lovers can communicate with animals... don't read hateful judgemental comments ... you did not capture it ...you just befriended it in the wild SO WHAT!! It is beautiful

[@KodenameKrusty]

When I was but a very small boy we lived near Anchorage Alaska and there was a Moose who would come up to the back door of our home every morning because my Dad made it pancakes and then feed them to it. It was a memorable and awesome time in my life.

They eat lichen,twigs and dry grass during winter.

[@boffifis1]

"I have 5 cats i know nature because i live in NYcity"

[@AKfishkayaker]

You "animal lovers" have no idea that moose eat branches all winter long. If you actually cared you could educate yourselves rather than speculating. Instead you sit in cities and do the opposite of what is actually in natures best interests. Very similar to when Californians come here and fish in the summer and criticize Alaskans for dumping fish carcasses back to the river. They say "this would never be legal in California". They recommend dumping fish waste in the trash to go to landfills rather than back to the eco system.
