The moose farm

2014-06-24
Here I'm petting a moose!
Here I'm petting a moose calf.
We were on a trip to "Älgens Hus". This is a moose farm.
They raise moose. And people can and see them and also be a little while in the pasture them and pet them.
Are not they cute?
.
Cute :-)

Me by the pasture with an adult moose.
Two moose are eating.
This moose is just standing there.
Two are lying in the grass.
He looked impressive.
Ove by the moose pasture.
There is a tray with food near the fence. then people can see the moose better.
We also may go in into the pasture of the adult moose but only a little while and only near the tray.
The owner is feeding the moose with apples.
The owner is always in the pasture while people are there.
They like apples very much.
The moose are big animals and still wild animals, even though they are used with people. They are not like horses who come to people.
The landscape.
The landscape and the mountain.
Antlers of a moose.
The calves were suddenly running to the other side of the pasture.
Run, run, run!
The reason: The woman came with milk. Taken from a moose mother.
They were excited and tipped over the bottles.
Waiting by the gate.
Me, now outside the pasture, taking pictures of the calves.
She took 2 calves at the time in a separate pasture and fed them.
They were hungry.
They were eager to get the milk.
Can we get more? :-)
Later two other calves go food.
.
Now all have got food.

Eating some leaves.
It looks so funny how the calves are sitting and eating like this. :-)
