Cow, Bull, and Calf Moose Interesting Behavior

A huge bull moose stands back and lies down while the cow he’s watching marks a sharp stake with his scent… how does she keep from gouging her eyes out? Her calf comes after sniffing the lying bull and, like its mother, marks the same pointed stake with its scent. Moose, like bears, tend to mark the same trees. But this short, pointed, broken stake? It doesn’t sound like a smart choice: a funny sound when the cow burps its dung. Also a few moans when the bull lies down. More to come from this vocal moose cow we’ve named Mona.The moose rut is an intense time, but there are also quieter moments when the animals lie down to rest.
