It's interesting to see how cow moose really fight over a bull moose. Where mule deer does seem to like to play hard to get. Elk bulls really try to control the elk cows and constantly watch them and keep them close by chasing and snaking them. It's cool to see how different they all are when it comes to the mating season.
It is interesting to see the different strategies nature works out for these animals during their annual ruts. Dall sheep are rather merciless with their ewes, while the cow moose obviously run the show. So different. And the elk and deer as well. Great observation, thanks for the comment!

eeEee
The one cow is coming into standing heat. She’s getting close to ovulating. And the survival of the fittest takes over. The bigger bull showed up and apparently the smaller bull didn’t want an argument. And the same cow is happy, ok with the more dominant bull.
Great video. Once in a lifetime video.
I witnessed the same thing with White tail deer from a tree stand…… once..
Yup you're right. The bulls dig a pit and get the cows riled up, the pheromones in the bull's urine drives the cows to the point of fighting over the pit. It is believed that triggers estrus, so the bulls have to work to keep the cows close by. And of course, other bulls will try to take advantage while the big boy is off chasing other bulls away. It's an exhausting time for them! Thanks for the comment! Must have been fun to watch from a tree stand with the deer.
I have never seen 5 mooses all together in a single video, 2 males and 3 females. Amazing footage you have captured. Thank you for sharing.
It is rare to see so many moose in one place in New England, but not so uncommon in Alaska, where we filled this. Thanks for watching!

That big bull moose came and a smaller moose man he took off quick didn't he
He was wise to do so. Fast forward years later and that young bull now rules that territory! Amazing how they learn and grow to dominate. Thanks for watching and commenting!
Best moose footage I've ever seen, go moose man.
Thanks so much!! Appreciate this awesome comment!!
Interesting video. Its worth watching what nature has given the big papa moose two beautiful antlers, quite big with 10+ dips. Awesome.
Thank you. Appreciate the comment and glad you are here along with us on this journey! These antlers are very impressive! Much more to come!
Just curious why so many dislikes this is Mother Nature at her finest and this incredible person is bringing it to you ❤
Не вижу негатива. Где вы его прочли?
One minute you have all the girls, the next minute you're like oooh shit!
The mating ritual is so interesting. Thank you for sharing. The bulls are majestic.
Glad you enjoyed. Thanks for watching.
I live in Alaska. I have had 6 bull moose fighting together in my yard. I have 18 moose in my yard bulls and cows alike. Right now I have 3 bulls, 1 cow, 2 females with babies. The bigger bulls are trying to kick the babies out to breed again with the cows.
Man that bull moose must have been a hunk, cause they were all over him haha
He was. He still is!!
Ale rogacz ma wzięcie! ,,Kobitki ,,się o niego biją!😁
I pomyśleć, że WSZYSCY mogliby go zdobyć, gdyby tylko zaczekali!
Cow's like "hurry baby". Bull's like "whoa she's into me. I'ma gonna play hard to get". "What! yo daddy's home . I'm outta here." Snooze you loose. 😂.
LOL that hurry baby killed me
That was incredible--craziest thing I have ever seen of these magnificent creatures. You are documenting something special! Again, Thank you.
Thank you very much. We love sharing such incredible behavior as this. Seems the wildlife teaches us something new every outing. This was certainly no exception. Appreciate the kind words!
@@MooseManNaturePhotos you are a real hunter for good (making film)
😀
"This bull will be the father of my children"!
The first dude was all that until big papa strolled up.
I love it when you call me...
"BIG PAPPA MOOSE"
It’s a Man’s Man’s World 🎼🎼
A bull's bull's world? Yes.
Thanks again. Great work .
really appreciate you watching. thank you.
They are beautiful animals also giants
Oh they are indeed. Massive, strong, but they can be SO gentle!
Nice , looks like they are getting ready for the rut but not quite there yet . Just a little forplay :-)
It's how it all gets started, after all! 🙂
It's so interesting that the dominant female kept chasing the other females away from the bull 😆
Yes, she's the one determined to have him as a baby daddy. 😆
She's like - Get back, heifers! He's mine!
Fantastic film. Great education from watching it. Massive animals. Real wilderness.
Thank you, glad you enjoyed it!
Playyyyyyyer!
Haha! The first bull said "F" it! These girls aren't worth fighting "Debo" for.
😆Yeah, and they finally came around to him!
Yes he told one of the cows to follow him and leave this one for the big guy he was smart they all look a like 😂
Interesting the way the bull moose constantly flicks his tongue in and out while the cows gather around him. Is that something he does in anticipation of which cow will choose him?
He's checking via scent glands in the roof of his mouth (Jacobson's organ) to see if any of them are in estrus. HI!!! What fun to see you here!!! 🥰🤩😘😁♥♥
Nice sharing,thanks,have a good day
Awesome video!🙋
Awesome video
Thanks so much! Appreciate that!
Thank you for this beautiful video❤❤❤❤
In my opinion, this is the species with the most beautiful horns in the world and second only to my neighbor (j4f)
They are very impressive headgear that's for sure! Good thing they don't have to wear them all through the winter. That's unneeded weight to have to pack around! Thanks ATP!
Fantastic
Thank you so much 😀
I noticed, the smaller bull walks away when he sees the size of the bigger boy strutting in LOL 😂...how exciting for all of u to witness such events, great footage as Always!! 🤘
Indeed, what's your name anyway, I love to respond directly to you other than MooseP. lol.......The lesser bull took off didn't he??
@@MooseManNaturePhotos
It's always been Moosepoop 🤔...LOL 🤣
& yes, the lesser Bull took off...🙃
Magnificent footage, thank you
Thank you!
@@MooseManNaturePhotos ĺ
I've seen the bull moose in person in Alaska!!!....but not too close!!!
Not too close is wise. It's the way to view them. Big lenses, lots of cropping in here!
The rack on the second bull!
Yes, he's impressive, isn't he?
this big guy is really handsome - a real ladies man
That he is!!
Yes, it's just great work !!!
I really liked it.
You have a great channel!
I will wait for your new videos.
oi

Amo esses animais...acho lindo as imagens
Muito obrigado. Eles são animais únicos, alces. Criaturas estranhas. Enormes, mas também são muito gentis às vezes. A natureza é incrível! Obrigado por assistir!
The Bull is so lucky,cows are waiting to be mounted..
Yes, they work very hard to keep them close by until they are truly ready. In the meantime it's a game of sorts. Exhausting for the bulls but really the cows run the show!
Good.
Both bulls are big, but the second was an absolute giant!
Beautiful and interesting video. Congrats!

Thank you very much, and thanks for watching!
My man she says lol
You know she means business when her ears go back
Oh yes. BIG red flag!!
Should’ve added great film! Thanks Moose Man
Thank you!!
Hey listen kid. Thanks for watching the girls and parking the car. I'll take over from here.
Hahahaha good one. Love it!! Beat it, kid. Ha!
Awesome footage.
Glad you enjoyed it
PROVES ONCE AGAIN THAT THAT MAN IS THE PRIZE!!!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿
Just curious is it always where the dominant female pushes away the other females I've never seen this before I've seen it in wild horses but never in moose
Usually the bulls have to seek out the cows, this herd of cows thing is a phenomenon that happens in Alaska, I guess from the sheer numbers of moose. We think it's a riot that the cows fight over the rut pit and want nothing to do with the bull. Yet. Give them a week!
It's in All animals the strongest survivor male& female
No it’s usually the male that is chasing doe’s. I have never seen females line up like this and fight to breed. And now that the real monster has shown up they go to him.
I feel like my spirit animal would be a bull moose.
Then it most likely is!
Awesome footage :)
thanks much.....we'll being showing new fresh footage very soon as the 2020 fall rut starts.
When I get to heaven, one of my best friends will be a moose…I just know it!
Love it, btw. I wanna be there with all my friends, dogs, horses and Grumpy, 22, Mismatch and all my other animal buddies! 🥰
Great video is it just me but r they so quiet when the rut is on???? I would think such a big animal would make more sounds???? I'm from South Africa so was just wondering????
Grreetings to you in South Africa! Thank you for being here.
It is truly amazing that moose do NOT make more vocalizations. They're so huge you'd think they would, right? We have seen several videos and high end productions of wildlife (BBC, etc) who get it all wrong with the moose, they insert these horrible bear sounds. It's comical to those of us who know moose and spend months with them. They grunt and whine but that's about it. Occasionally the cow will make a short bark sound at a calf. We have yet to get that on film. But have certainly heard it a few times. And we haven't seen a documentary that has caught it either. Anyway, great question. And thank you for asking it! Welcome!
All that sniffing around! Moose for: What you got in your wallet?
Yeah, pretty much!🤣
I remember in college, all the girls were fighting over me like this
Yeah? Lucky guy!!These bulls? work awfully hard to get a girl! The girls just tease them and make it LOOK like they're interested. Then pull a nya nya. (Eventually they do come around.) 🙂
And then the bigger guy came in.
Omg that robustly powerful male just released a potent scent that drives & quite posessed in those females to mate with him never observed moose behaviors before just amazing😱
Sorry I missed this comment. It's quite the thing to watch the moose rut unfold. This is a small part of it. We've seen it all, and have videoed it too! Lots more on this channel. Thanks for watching.
@@MooseManNaturePhotos don't stop posting those stunning wildlife live moose filming you're doing a great job kodus all the best!
I think the first bull was probably a senior bull. He had great body size, but his rack was not as big as it has probably been during his lifetime. That other monster bull was in his full prime. Who wouldn't have given up the field?
So the kind of thin bull with the really wide rack is the very senior bull. He is a fighter/warrior and he won this one against an up and coming younger bull whose rack is absolutely crazy fun with stuff going on. But again, the older, wiser bull bested the younger one because he had uphill/high ground advantage. So interesting, because it was really an even match other than that! Thanks for the comment and for watching, Cindy!
Нет, чем старше лось, тем ветвистее рога.
Есть игра в царя горы, а тут в царя ямки 😙😁
This so unusual and refreshing, with the male getting to choose and the females competing for the right to get layed.
Actually what they're competing for is the right to get close to the bull's sexy smelling urine. After a day or two they'll be more interested in the bull.
It reminds me of that South Park episode where cartmans kitty was in heat.

cows trying to play it off like they didnt know the intruder was ever there ....."oh hey babe...i was just sleeping whats going on?"
Yeah, I know! We have seen the bulls aggressively chase them so I think they just try to act cool like you said. Thanks for watching.
Amazing footage
Thank you!
Tailless animal 😮
It seems unfair that they don't have tails, I know! They get bitten by bugs on their back legs that a tail would help with. But once you realize where they live, you'd also realize a tail wouldn't work in that thick growth and bogs and such. They had probably rotted off and over thousands of years wasted away completely.
There's the 'Hollywood' male...
and the REAL MALE......
Its time for fun
Oh
Я охотник с детства. Вначале грибы и в гору. Но мелочь не стреляю. Хорошо когда в лесу кто щебечет, свистит рябчик. Самая красивая птица. Не добываю
Есть что жрать.огород что Франция у города. Не могу подманить великанов этих.
Тетерева - красивые птицы, и я люблю звуки птиц и диких животных в лесу. Это мирно. Чтобы увидеть этих лосей, нужно далеко ехать, вплоть до Аляски! (Нам нравится хороший суп из лесных грибов!) Спасибо за просмотр.
Great video .Thanks.
Thank you for watching!

I have no idea what this means?
This is too human-like lol
The hotshot bull is flirting with all the cows, and the one cow who is chasing the other girls away is serious in love with the hotshot. Yet, hotshot bull is sniffing on the other cows behind the back of the devoted cow. She chases them away again...as if urging the hotshot to be devoted! Hotshot still plays around, until the BIG SHOT shows up.
Hotshot flees, and the devoted cow attempts to cozy up to the Big Shot. Just like in real life, don't waste your time with players, and don't get into petty cat fights over someone who'll flee.
Oh common guys have got too, I’ve a headache!! Oh well go easy!
Con nầy kéo xe cho ông già Noel tới mùa giao phối rồi ..
Actually, that would be a reindeer, not a moose (:>)
Хороший гарем,
Reminds me of my old club days lol
HA yeah those good ol' days!
I have never seen cow moose fighting over a bull before.
I'm betting that younger bull wishes he had stopped wasting time with foreplay and got down to business before the big guy showed up..
Ha! You'd think. Pity it's not that easy...the cows decide! And they haven't made up their minds yet. Those poor bulls just have to keep them close by for when they ARE ready. Thanks for the comment!
😊
😄
All three females were trying to mate with that bull.
And that bull will try to mate with many others too.
*I guess ya'll know who's boss around there!* 🤣😂🤣
This clip really shows you alot about the rut and what is going on Brenda.
@@MooseManNaturePhotos m.
He has a giant spread compared to the younger one. Such a chicken,, didnt even pretend he was big.
But he did manage to steal the big bull's rut pit for a little while. (:>) He knew when not to fight. He's also the bull in the injured bull video, so he eventually was fighting anything and everyone. Kept on going, too. Men!
Burro
@@caixatembonfim261 Ha
I think he's just smart
@@sarahsweet220 You're so right!
Awesome video!! They are like horses on steroids. This has to be filmed in Canada or Alaska?
Alaska. And thank you!
Look at all that moose poon he has to choose from
Well if he truly wants the rut pit to be his and the cows to fall in love with him, he must add his own stink to that pit.
He did. When he peed in it.
@@MooseManNaturePhotos And the cows are like; "Oh baby that's yummy."
Do you have two types of antlers there too? We have two types in Sweden: the "sticks" and the "showels". It seems to me that the first bull is a "stick" and the second bull is a "showel".
0:21
1:14...."he's mine bitches, go find your own man"....snap, snap of the fingers.
He waited to long 😩, that is why; he did not get late.
He had to wait longer, the cows decide, they weren't ready. But he was there when they were!
😊😅😊
I tried the scent thing in a club once and just got thrown out.
HA! It didn't go over well? Wrong crowd!
XD
wow, a video featuring moose that doesn't feature them spewing blood and being drawn and quartered!
Yeah, we don't do that here. We hunt with cameras. Period.
Porquê nós não temos este animal no Brasil
too hot!
А что происходит?
Ежегодный брачный ритуал лося. Это довольно странно. А местами смешно!
First bull moose must have had his ass kicked before by the bigger one. Why else would he retreated just by seeing him from a distance?
That year this bull didn't do much fighting, so I think he was just not as sure as he would become the next year. Then he took on anything that looked at him wrong. He knows the other bull would have his lunch in this video. Smart move.

Дотук добре!
ok I stumbled across this video, I'm a city boy have no idea WTF is going on here. seems like they all want to lay down in that depression, that specific spot for some reason? is this a thing?
HI there, we welcome the question. The depression is called a rut pit. Get ready cuz this is strange but very true. Every years during the rut (mating season), bulls dig pits, urinate in them (it's how they advertise ), the bull will lie in it to get the mud all over himself and the cows will actually fight to do the same. There is usually a pecking order among the females and that is what you were watching, so yes....it's a thing. Thanks for your question.
@@MooseManNaturePhotos ok, did not know that : ) ty
Old bull vs young bull….
Что происходит?
Это «гон», брачный период лосей. Этот один бык (самец) украл территорию и коров (самок) другого быка, который был занят преследованием еще одного быка, когда он возвращается, чтобы прогнать этого. Забавный материал для просмотра. Спасибо за то, что вы здесь!
