What Killed These Moose?

Three dead moose, and not your typical wolf kill. What killed these moose?
We came across a lot of nothing, and then three dead moose, and then three big bulls.

IMHO appears the two antler sets with skulls were not interlocked as happens when such wild animals are found dead together . Each set is a bit uncommon being adorned with long pointy times rather than palmated shorter ones. So they fought until very tired and each suffered mortally bad punctures. They each went to their 'corner of the ring' and died of internal blood loss/damage.

[@dave6857]

That scene with your daughters, the frost and the sunrise was one of the most beautiful outdoor footage I've ever seen. Thanks for sharing.

[@Hannahcode1]

I thought the same thing, and it reminded me of some mornings I have seen growing up in Colorado and hunting the Rockies. But yeah, kudos for such gorgeous footage!

[@Hannahcode1]

PS, it's all about the light!

[@klayvonisme]

You been living under a rock?

[@mattherlitz5962]

I hope it is closed caption, I love watch all your shows! I m deaf so that's why I needed closed caption to enjoy your shows 🥰🥰🥰🤟 bless your family merry Christmas and happy new years

[@d-arts7139]

personally, not even seeing game is worse. but i dont NEED the animal! itd be different otherwise. another explianition on the moose... they say wolves can easily overtake moose. are there a lot of wolves around? they tend to get outa hand if not kept in check

[@angus9941]

The wolves chased the moose into the deep snow in the creek bottom so they would get mired and tire out quicker. Old trick. Sorry no moose, that’s why they call it hunting and not killing. Keep safe.

[@bottomrung5777]

Deep snow is when they have already dropped their antlers, no? Bet they fought and notice how unusually long and sharp some tines are on each set rather than being palmated like normal. Lethal puncture wounds and they tired, went to each of their 'ring corners' and died of internal damage.

[@emilyjayne77]

Oh my goodness, I’m so envious of your way of life 🥰 so beautiful, thank you for sharing. Have a beautiful Christmas to the whole family With love from Nottinghamshire, England 🇬🇧

[@MySGarden]

That shot at the end was stunning Beautiful country. Harsh but stunning. How lucky you are to be there with your best pals. Thanks for taking us along

[@SingleDadHomesteading]

I know why you had a hard time finding thise moose they knew thise girls where in the woods so they ran

[@maggienixon1312]

I probably won’t be able to watch live, so I’ll just add my guess of what killed them. I’m going out on a limb here and guessing, DEATH killed them? Lol sorry, I had to say it. It’s the answer my husband always gives so I just thought , why not? Also wanted to say “MERRY CHRISTMAS “ to your family and to Dave’s as well . Thanks for all the great content you put out I know that it might be hard sometimes but it gives me hope that there are people out there that still value family life

[@throngcleaver]

Samsquanch LOVE moose burgers, and that scares the dickens out of the rest of the moosies. ;) Great video! Especially the drone footage at the end. Thank you!

[@figelski1]

No moose here on Prince of Wales Island, but we did manage to get our quota of deer, even with our over population of wolves.

[@noproblem2big337]

Great hunting trip, found two moose but no meat🤣😂 That drone video at the end was just beautiful, I wonder what the moose thought...hey there's a huge blow fly I just don't trust, let's get out-a-here!

[@stevendegonia]

I hear tales of a Russian couple that were after an American squirrel and a Canadian Moose..... But Hey, I could be mistaken... lol Just call Dudley Doright and have him report it to Ranger Smith... lol

[@bubbaleon]

Glad to see you guys finally got some waders! Your previous videos of crossing water in crocs would make my feet cold just watching.

[@mickemike2148]

Clearly the population of Sasquatch is getting out of hand to the point that they eradicate the moose! Neat drone footage of the bulls!

[@MikeSiemens88]

I spot moose regularly at a small alpine lake I like to visit, most often to fish but also hunt. Usually solo so I'm after deer during season, not moose. Be pretty tough to extract a moose by myself, plus moose season in that area is spike fork only, which makes things even more difficult. I bumped a huge bull in another area this fall too, never expected to see one there. What a beast but again, not in season & spike fork in that region as well.

Ok! I was worried after the last video that you had changed your intro. The "NO WAAAY" was SKIPPED and I didn't get to see Ruth's beautiful face and smile after the gold pan. I am feeling much better now that it is all back! I LOVE the intro to your videos so MUCH! I never skip it...I think it is the only intro on KZbin that I love seeing everytime, it just fills me with excitement EVERYTIME! I don't understand it...but it's amazing.

[@Gridlessness]

Hey thanks for your comment, I'm surprised but happy that you noticed that slight change:)

[@Gridlessness]

Also, are you actually a pack goat trainer!?

[@THEPackGoatTrainer]

@@Gridlessness Whaaat you message me! For some reason that blows my mind a bit and makes me feel a little special. Yes, but not right now. I was going to make a KZbin channel on the topic but then I married a wonderful, handsome, Alaskan man and made cute babies. Our youngest is 5 months old and we are still working towards getting property I can have goats on. If your girls wanted to train their goats to pack or drive we could arrange a video call and I can teach them. And with Hot Dave being the wood working master that he is, he could easily make goat pack saddles. Goats that are bottle fed or well handled can be really easy to train. Some people use packgoats to haul meat out from hunting in remote locations that has terrain not friendly for horses. Like when you were hunting mountain goats. ... Sorry...that was maybe more information than you wanted.

[@THEPackGoatTrainer]

@@Gridlessness Haha! For some reason, the intro to your intro is really important to me, It's really fun!

After the fires here in Southern BC. I chose not to hunt this year, for the first time in 45 years. It has been nice living vicariously through your hunts. It has been years since I got a moose so this would have been a typical hunt for me. Thanks for sharing.

[@nhmountains5683]

Another great video even without a moose kill. Here in New Hampshire I’ve seen coyotes chew large chunks out of moose antler sheds so it’s not always squirrels and porcupine that get them.

[@saxet9049]

Wow! Great drone footage at the end 👍

[@josephreagan7183]

Hunting is all about the experience but when it comes to the children we always want to see them be successful in their hunt. Went through it a lot with my sons deer and elk hunting.

[@bobboyer9440]

Just an uneducated guess. Both moose were fighting and came close to exhaustion when a pack of wolves took advantage of the situation and it ended up that both moose succumbed to a pack of wolves.

[@Gridlessness]

Yep, that’s a great hypothesis

[@ralphhunt5225]

I’m thinking that the calf might have been a still born, or possibly just a week young animal that got in that marsh and succumbed to the elements. It looked as if only smaller scavengers ate off it, larger predators would have scattered the bones far and wide . Your drone footage is crazy impressive, and it answers your question as to where the bulls were/are, seems like they were having a bit of a STAG party, no pun intended, or maybe they were having a little chat, a BULL session as it were, and yes that pun was intended,! Your girls are incredibly impressive, and they make me proud to be a Canadian. Jeff, you and Rose are awesome parents, and from the bottom of my heart , from my family, to yours,I want to wish you a very Merry Christmas, and Happiest New Year .

[@spiritualhealeradventures555]

I thought you guys lives at the USA, just found out that you lives at Canada, no matter where you lives , you making life living , love you guys , wish you always the best , and praying God to bless and protect you all . What a great satisfying Wonderful family

[@caseroj6020]

Hi I am curious. It seems like everyone in the family is fond of the Tikka T3X Lite hunting rifle. And judging from the diameter of the barrel and the length it looks to be one of the magnum calibers. Can you confirm that? Is it 7mm Rem Mag or 300 Win Mag? Those are really light rifles and if you are firing magnums it's going to pack a wallop on recoil. Cheers!

[@Gridlessness]

We use a 7mm rem mag and a .243. We do a lot of backcountry hunts and the light weight of the Tikka T3x Lite is welcomed!

[@rickholloway5218]

So glad to see another video from my favorite Canadian family! I always enjoy your videos and this one did not disappoint. Sorry you weren't able to find a live moose, cause I know the meat is needed, but I loved the excitement on the girls' faces when you found the 2 moose skulls! When my 2 girls still had time to hunt with me, we weren't always able to shoot something, but we always still had fun together. And that's one thing I enjoy with your family, the way you all have fun with whatever you're doing. God bless you all, Merry Christmas, and keep the vids coming when you have time!

[@edrobbins1146]

[@jodejekab]

awesome find one day in the woods without a kill is still better than one day out of the woods

[@charlesurrea1451]

WAit does this really mean that moose really can't look up?

[@Gridlessness]

Moose predators don’t hunt from above so moose don’t normally look up for danger. It’s different for deer in cougar country, they definitely look up for signs of danger.

I know it sucks not to fill your tags, but at least you were able get out there and give it a try, better luck to you for next season, awesome drone footage

Love your guys videos. The coolest thing is making it yourselves. The girls are most likely experts at editing and all the tech stuff that goes into these. An entire schooling process that a kid would never experience in a public school. Your kids are learning hands on everyday being prepared for their futures, whereas the education system creates 20 year olds with zero hands on experience at anything. You are all excellent role models for the viewers. Thanks for sharing.

[@TheSkinking]

Just going to take a wild guess. I think probably native hunters, they want the meat and the antlers are just more to pack out, but I don`t know your provincial laws and how they pertain to native hunting rights.
