Title: Only in Alaska!
Post by: mudbrook on February 12, 2008, 01:31:02 PM
Only  in   Alaska.......  This man raised an abandoned moose calf with
his horses, and has trained  it for lumber removal and other hauling
tasks. Given its 2,000 pound  weight and its splayed, grippy hooves, he
claims it is the best work  animal he has. He says the secret to
keeping the moose around is a sweet salt  lick, although during the rut
he disappears for a couple of weeks, but  always comes back home.
