Wherever you drive in Northern Maine there are signs to beware the moose. There have been quite a few fatal accidents in the last few years. Yet, moose are not always that easy to find. While visiting a sportsmen camp last week (8/8/2007) for the CEFTS meeting, we were told of an almost guaranteed place where the moose could be seen. There was nothing there except for a few prints. But on the way back we saw this cow, nearly hidden in the saplings growing on an old logging road.
After watching us for a few minutes she turned to go back in the forest. We noticed she had a calf with her. Maybe that’s why she was so vigilant.
