They can be and are dangerous, only if you bother a cow with calves, or challenge a bull in the rut. I have them where my home is, in the backyard. I have been charged on my porch by a cow protecting a calf and in the field hunting. Generally it is a false charge, BUT, you can never be sure. Your moose are nice animals, but a bit smaller than what is in Canadas north, ours can get to 700 to 800 kgs and they won't lay there, once they sense a human getting predatory, but often in summer time will stay at a distance and watch you, well listen to you or scent you. They also get used to a human, I've had them sneak up a few metres behind me while working in my yard, without issue. Great animals.
Would love Niall to meet and have a chat with Steve Rinella , they are both knowledgeable and passionate about hunting and conversation, could be a great show.
Sound of the forrest, when the dog has a moose or other game on trail and signals with the bark is some of the best nature moments there is . Col Cooper the wise man hunted moose in Norway in the 80s with his .350 Lion Scout,he liked it very much.
I got back from my moose hunt a few weeks ago and I was successful for the first time. cant fully appreciate the size of these animals until your are actually right next to them! Just wanted to say that the terrain in Sweden looks very flat and easily traversable, I'm in Canada and the bush we dealt with was not the same as in the video, it was much worse. where I had to take my time to circumnavigate lakes and swamps and hike hills and thick brush. the video makes their hunt look like a country stroll or on farm or something. no disrespect intended I just wanted to point out the vast difference in environments o noticed.
Funny that Niall believes lynx to be more dangerous than moose when there are plenty of accounts of moose attacks but none I know of from lynx attacks.
Niall shows a staggering lack of ecological knowledge. Typical of your British shooters, think they know everything about wildlife because they live in the countryside. Totally ignorant.
Well. 99 % of The Times The cow defends there calfs or The person has a dog in company. So basicly The attacks are The peoples fault, because peoples have no knowledge about wild animals anymore. So you can actually say peoples make The animals agressive.
Niall should have gone to a place that actually has some moose, 1-2 moose/1km2 is extremely low and they shouldn't shoot any more mosse in that area in a couple of years!!
Niall displays a huge lack of ecological knowledge with his comments. First of all, Lynx are not considered a dangerous animal because there has been no reports of unprovoked Lynx attacks on people in Europe. Lynx are shy animals and are not interested in being near people. As for the “cherry picking” comments, ask any rewilding advocate and they will tell you they’d love to have European elk back in Scotland. Whether we have enough habitat suitable for them is another thing, Rewilding Britain doesn’t seem to think so saying that we need more woodland and wetland. Hopefully the beavers can improve the status of the latter. And finally, the reason there is so much emphasis on Lynx and wolf reintroduction is simply because Scotland has lost its native predators, and predators play a vital role in helping the expansion of woodland habitats. Elk are not a priority right now but predators are. I’m uploading videos of rewilding topics on my channel and invite people to subscribe so they can learn more about this subject.
I grew up in Utah on the desert I used to see moose even out there, as well as in the mountains. thanks for putting out these great videos.

Great video as always

Any shooter who touches the barrel when shooting, needs a little more tuition on firearm dynamics.
