  Nice Moose ! @Big Train  Can I ask who makes the shrubbery that he's standing next to ?

Woodland Scenics clump foliage (basically really coarse turf). The moose is a file I found on Thingiverse and printed on the Photon S.
Because why not...

Time to trade in the chicken sound file for some moose sounds, whatever they are...😁

Having spent some time photographing moose, all I can say is that I never heard one do anything like a bugle.  A moose has an inquisitive grunt noise when it seems to be asking a question (like "Who peed on this bush just after the trail split?" when one gets to where I "marked" the path to my tent to keep them out of my camp).  The rest of the sounds I heard were sloshing in water, peeing a LOT of "water", and "thundering hoofs" when they ran somewhere.  Maybe a few horselike snorts.  Of course, I stayed out of the woods during breeding season, so I can't tell you about the noises they make when things get exciting.  But, for summer scenes, nothing exciting.  Maybe a sound track for wolves? Coyotes?

Sounds no worse than your typical trainshow noises...  :trollface:


In all seriousness, as @Maletrain describes, typically you hear peeing, grunting, and scraping of antlers on tree limbs. Its remarkable how such a large animal can become practically invisible behind a few twigs.

In my younger days as a US Forest Service employee, I lived in a cabin in the Moose infested woods. Many times I would stumble outside in the early morning hours to pee and nearly trip over a Moose keeping our yard trimmed. Those things are invisible in a thicket in the low light and they will just stand there looking at you until A) you almost run into them and/or B) they decide you are too close and grunt and/or C) they decide your too close and come at you.

When they do come at you, they do not run around smallish trees, they go through them. It’s quite a scene.
