DonBo Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 This was emailed to me by Rather_B_Fishing. Not sure of the validity of the photos, but you gotta admit it's one big moose. By the length of his beard and the grey legs, I figure he must be over 10 years old. He looks to be well over 8 feet at the top of the shoulder hump,and with his head up the height to the top of his antler must be about 12 feet .This guy is king of the forest, no bear or pack of wolves would dare come after him when he has this rack......Considering that a dirt road can fit 1 1/2 cars across ... this fellow is HUGE ...THIS IS ONE BIG BOY! THE PICTURE WAS TAKEN IN ELLIOT LAKE, MAINE Yes it is a regular size dirt road. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jameson Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 That thing would sink into a tarred road, let alone a dirt road.One can always dream.....Sure would be a pants wetter if a guy saw that when he had a valid moose tag. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bear55 Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 Kind of looks like a narrow dirt drivway to me. Either way its a big moose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DTro Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 I bet that moose just strolled out of that lake that the famous Northern picture was taken at. It was Rainy right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bear55 Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 Notice the lack of shadow from the moose.Obvious photoshop hack job. I'm not denying its a fake but the moose is walking in the shade so you aren't going to see a shadow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pinkfloyd4ever Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 ya, its a cool pic, not an expert and did not stay at a holiday inn express, but seems like the sun/shadows would be coming from the left side of pic and over towards the right, so when the moose is walking down the road then there should be some shadow effect on the trees to its right, just my opinion, but on the flip side, that would be one huge moose!

DonBo Posted September 14, 2009 Author Share Posted September 14, 2009 If it's a photoshop, it's a very good one. Look at the vegitation covering it's legs in the first photo. It would be extremely difficult to make all that look as natural as it does. The road also seems to me to be a bit less a road than a driveway, but still....take out all the background and you can still see it is a very big moose. I'm not sayin', I'm just sayin' .

HopkinsFishN Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 Looks pretty real to me, take a closer look at the "shadows" on the road, or even the lighting around his antlers/legs from where the sun is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrklean Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 it looks to big to be real Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bear55 Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 Actually looking a little closer I think the pic could be real, the first photo is a little out of focus which is fairly common with any digital camera, the 2nd photo has much more detail. Any one faking a pic is going to take the time to make one poor image and one good image. The moose looks huge but its just a small road, there really isn't anything to compare it to size wise so it look huge, I'm sure there are plently of moose out there larger than him.

certified jumbo Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 Kind of a fun pic. It came out about a year ago. But, unfortunetely it is not real. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
picksbigwagon Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 fake or not, definitely a shooter. could it be an atv trail? resort trail for golf carts? or a golf path at a golf course? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MN Shutterbug Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 It would be pretty scary if that was a real gravel road. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
