    Ya sure grow em big in Ma.

    Got this in an Email. Figured it may have been photoshopped.





    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 ROYALSTON, MA.. on Old Turnpike Road on The St. Laurent Camper's Property by Dan Patterson. He ran like a school-girl after taking it.

    I have a hard time beleiving that pic. is real, but if it is that thing is huge, I wouldn't want to come across that in the woods camping or hunting.
    I went back and looked at the pic. again, blew it up. It appears as if there is 3 legs on the front of him??? Or am I seeing things Wouldn't be the first time

    Imagine having to scoop the yard after a few of them beasts wander thru!

    You would need a box of contractor bags to cover them loads!

    It does look a little big to be real, but those things are huge anyway.

    I was always amazed during the few years I lived in Maine - especially the guys driving Chevettes - They'd flop a moose across the top of the car to get it home...

    Well .... actually there Sammy.... thats the old five legg-ed moose brother species ... the moosilingus carpaculus. Indigenous to the norhtern Massachusets woodlands which originally was introduced by a spider horse off breed in the 17th century.

    I think thats the bottom of the tree right behind his hump. I dont know about that being fake, a bull moose can go 7 to 8 feet at the shoulder. It could be real, I dont know if I would wanna be that close taking a picture. I remember whe we were in Canada one moose on the side of the roads belly was as high as the window sill in a slightly lifted pickup. That thing looks a little bigger.
