Creek Moose

I found this young bull on a backcountry hike as he was bedded down.  Hours later, he hadn't moved an inch.

It took a bigger bull to walk into the area for him to get up.  He took a sip from the creek and walked over to greet the other bull.  "Greet" may be too nice of a description: the two bulls sparred violently for a few seconds and this guy lost.  He ran away followed by the bigger bull, which quickly ended my photographic opportunity ...

A quick tip when going out to look for moose: wear rain boots.  This image required me to go into the creek to get to eye level with the bull.
