Description
Young bull moose near a campground in Algonquin Provincial Park, Ontario, Canada. I startled him as much as he startled me suddenly coming out of bush onto a trail. He just looked at me a moment, then crossed the trail to where he's standing in the photo & started eating. As long as I didn't move he wasn't concerned about me. Every time I took a step to the right to get a clearer view he would stop as he has in the photo. He trotted off a short distance, turned to look at me then went back to eating when he saw I hadn't followed. When he went back into the bush I waited a couple of minutes then moved up the trail. I'm constantly amazed at how difficult it is to see such a large animal in the bush even when I know it's there only a few yards away.
