Look! A Moose!

"Look! A Moose!" is what I always hear at the office when I’m supposed to ‘Look the other way".

  2. g-lo says:

    Cute! But is that a chest toupee I’m seeing?

  3. Heather S. says:

    Awww…. you can almost see the wobblyness!

  4. EricaE says:

    Look! First post!

  5. Ayumi says:

    Ahaha, it just looks so… out of proportion!

  6. EricaE says:

    *grumble* I know I should never do that because I can never be sure…. Erm…

    Look… 4th post…. *sigh*
    It’s just not the same.

    Cute moose.

  7. lauowolf says:

    Poor baby.
    His back legs are sooo precarious.
    They don’t look as if they are under him.
    This whole walking thing may just be a bad idea.

  8. Theo says:

    MOOSE-LING!
    MOOSE-LING!
    MOOSE-LING!
    PRONK!!

  9. Molly says:

  15. Laura says:

    Bebei moose!
    Squee!

  16. eek says:

    i love the wee, shy smile and the (doubtless) audible “blingh…blingh” eyelashes.

  17. PuppyMomma says:

    Aww. Wee baybay moose. Bet you can only drive matchbox cars under him…

    Because you can drive Volkswagon Beetles under the grown up ones.

  18. jaypo says:

    Living proof that bebes are cuter than adults of same! (820 lbs later….)

  19. jaypo says:

    (…you’re swerving out of the road trying to avoid them)

  20. Brak_Silverbone says:

    “Why am I such a misfit?
    I am not just a nitwit…!”

    This really looks like a big stuffed toy. And I really do want to pick him up and give him a beeeeeg squish!

  21. chunkstyle says:

    Oh man, he looks so satisfied to be on his feet (:>D
    Knee capsules win over eye capsules any day
    TGI-KC!

  22. Rayndrop says:

    Is it just me, or does the plural of “moose” seem like it should be “meese”? That has always, always bugged me.

    But anyway, I have virtually nothing original to say about the picture. Pretty much Theo, Betty, and Laura all rolled into one squeeing, cooing mess, repeatedly eeping “baby” in pucker-lipped, indeterminate goo-goo talk accents.

    BEEEEEEEHHHHBAY MwwooooOOOOOSEYYY!! Ahhhhh!!!!!

  23. oola says:

    You lied, that’s not a moose that’s a baby moose. I wasn’t prepared for that much cute. You need to warn people, Jeez!

  24. Tanya says:

    just face it, the (baby) moose is cute.

  25. Brak_Silverbone says:

    And LOOK! He’s on TIPTOE!

    Baby moose toes!!

  26. Merri says:

    Boris: “We go kill moose and squirrel!”
    Natasha: “We must go to Whatsamatta U!”
    For those of you young-ones this is from a cartoon in the 60′s called “Rocky (the flying squirrel) and Bullwinkle” (J. Moose). I watched it when I was very little. Very cute baby moose-ling!

  27. Anne says:

    Hey Rocky and Bullwinkle was on after school here, I remember it! :nod: I love his little moosey-hooves. Still perfectly pointed and dainty like a little moosey-ballerina.

  28. AuntieMame says:

    Rule #9873558673: Legs miles out of proportion with the rest of your body.

    Hey, Moosh! Don’t slip on that shiny deck!

  29. ceebs says:

    Tooooo precious!!!
    On the white surface and on his cloven tippy toes, he almost looks as if he’s ice skating!
    Are those lil toofies I see or is that the bottom of his nosicle? Enquiring minds moose know!

  30. makiono says:

    now I feel old… I watched Rocky and Bullwinkle when I was little, but I was born late 80′s >.< ahah, maybe it just means moose cuteness is an enduring kind XD
    on another note, I do believe this is a classic case of something not following the “by the book cute” rules (lol) yay for oversized ears!

  31. Connie says:

    Me? I really like the deck… the moose is cute, but I want that deck :P

  32. hrh.squeak says:

    Beautiful big crinkly velvety ears – must snorgle!!!

  33. adrienne says:

    oh my GOSH!

  34. Tony James says:

    The colour tells me that this must be a chocolate moose..

  35. E. Collison says:

    Ooh…. look at the velvety eeeears!!! [That's the closest this gal gets to a "squee."]

    I want it. Now. With a baby tapir. (Hold the gift-wrap, ’cause I lakh mah animals snorgle-ready!)

    Seriously, Meg, you’ve outdone yourself this time! ;)

  36. HonorH says:

    I need to find a pic that ran in the Anchorage Daily News a few days back–hot day, and a young moose found a backyard sprinkler to play in. No joke. It was jumping around it like a little kid. Must find pic!

  37. alma says:

    And I thought it was cool to get deer in my backyard growing up!

    Sometimes the city life looks ugly after too many visits to CO.

  38. sabrina says:

    love the moose!

  39. J. Bo says:

    “If you give a moose a muffin, he’ll want some jam to go with it…”

  40. thatgrrrl says:
  41. Cat says:

    I can’t help but wonder if there is an angry mama moose standing behind the intrepid nature photographer…..

  42. Nickole says:

    I actually got chased by a moose one time. It probably meant no harm, but a grown moose is a big animal when your seven.

    This one I probably wouldn’t have been scared of even then…

  43. ceebs says:

    Oh my goosh, thanks for posting that link to the picture of the moose in the sprinkler, thatgrrl (and HonorH) . That is the cutest story. That’s the kind of stuft I love. Kills meh!

  44. Carolyn J. says:

    Nickole, a grown moose is big & scary when you’re grown. And if you’re near their young ‘uns, or in rut, they do mean harm. Be glad you escaped in one piece :)

  45. kitty says:

    maaan, why don’t i ever look outside and find a baby moose on my deck

  46. Michele says:

    0m9 they have a baby moose at their hizzouse! can i get a pet moose? what do moose(s) eat?

  47. tegan says:

    eat a sandwich!

  48. Donna says:

    “Hi, nice to meet you–
    stumblestumblestumble thump! Oops, let me get up again…”

    Growing up as a moose is more embarrassing than high school.

    Cuteness!

  49. jenn says:

    oh. ma. gawd. baby moose is tewtelly smiling. obviously because he just ran through someone’s sprinkler.

  50. Selo says:

    …”Knee capsules”? D:

  51. Angela says:

    Anyone remember that children’s book about a little girl who sees a moose eating all the family veggies and no one believes her? I do…

  52. The Honourable Gadys Anstruther says:

    There’s a Moose loose in the hoose

  53. Who? says:

    A Møøse once bit my sister …

  54. Diane says:

    MOOSE!

    I go away for a few days, and I come back to mooooose! Mooses be my most favorites of all.

    Let us all sing along with Mosey T. Moose as he sings the “Hoofprint” song:

    Hoofprint… Hoofprint… HOOFPRINT!

  55. Laurie C says:

    Diane — there’s a song for that?

  56. A thinker says:

    MOOSIE!!

  57. Theo says:

    To “Who?” — thou rulest. Here, have a grail. Iss verra niize.

  58. TK says:

    There’s a great question that I once heard in Montana:

    What is worse to run into in the woods, a baby moose or a baby bear?

    Most people say the baby bear, because they’ve heard that if you find a baby bear in the woods, you should run away as fast as you can, because if momma bear finds you bothering her baby, she will attack you.

    However, the answer is actually that a baby moose is worse to run into. While momma bear will attack you and drive you away from her baby, once she knows that her baby is safe, she will stay with her baby and comfort it and leave you alone. Momma moose, on the other hand, will hunt you down and mess you up. You could be back at home in your apartment in the city, and one day, your doorbell will ring, and it will be momma moose, there at your doorstep for revenge…. :)

  59. Theo says:

    ROFL, TK… it’s like the Land Shark. “Caaandygram!”

  60. Jessica says:

    Uh oh, where is mama moose?

  61. cj says:

    he bit me sister!
