What a great week in the
woods! I have been snowshoeing, checking trail cameras and searching for deer
and moose sheds. Two things were found this week, the first were muscles that haven’t
been used that much in years, and the second was a respectable moose shed. As
the week went on the sore muscles eased and the time out snowshoeing increased.
I have been searching for the other antler starting back where the first shed was found, then followed every moose track in
the area for long distances.
What made this moose shed an
interesting find was finding a shed and having a video of the bull, and it appears the bull has moose hair
on the brow tine. Doubtfully that hair has been there since the moose rut back
in early fall. That hair could suggest bulls still spar aggressively until there
antlers drop.
