It's interesting to see how cow moose really fight over a bull moose. Where mule deer does seem to like to play hard to get. Elk bulls really try to control the elk cows and constantly watch them and keep them close by chasing and snaking them. It's cool to see how different they all are when it comes to the mating season.
It is interesting to see the different strategies nature works out for these animals during their annual ruts. Dall sheep are rather merciless with their ewes, while the cow moose obviously run the show. So different. And the elk and deer as well. Great observation, thanks for the comment!
The one cow is coming into standing heat. She’s getting close to ovulating. And the survival of the fittest takes over. The bigger bull showed up and apparently the smaller bull didn’t want an argument. And the same cow is happy, ok with the more dominant bull. Great video. Once in a lifetime video. I witnessed the same thing with White tail deer from a tree stand…… once..
Yup you're right. The bulls dig a pit and get the cows riled up, the pheromones in the bull's urine drives the cows to the point of fighting over the pit. It is believed that triggers estrus, so the bulls have to work to keep the cows close by. And of course, other bulls will try to take advantage while the big boy is off chasing other bulls away. It's an exhausting time for them! Thanks for the comment! Must have been fun to watch from a tree stand with the deer.
I live in Alaska. I have had 6 bull moose fighting together in my yard. I have 18 moose in my yard bulls and cows alike. Right now I have 3 bulls, 1 cow, 2 females with babies. The bigger bulls are trying to kick the babies out to breed again with the cows.
They are very impressive headgear that's for sure! Good thing they don't have to wear them all through the winter. That's unneeded weight to have to pack around! Thanks ATP!
Thank you very much. We love sharing such incredible behavior as this. Seems the wildlife teaches us something new every outing. This was certainly no exception. Appreciate the kind words!
Just curious is it always where the dominant female pushes away the other females I've never seen this before I've seen it in wild horses but never in moose
Usually the bulls have to seek out the cows, this herd of cows thing is a phenomenon that happens in Alaska, I guess from the sheer numbers of moose. We think it's a riot that the cows fight over the rut pit and want nothing to do with the bull. Yet. Give them a week!
No it’s usually the male that is chasing doe’s. I have never seen females line up like this and fight to breed. And now that the real monster has shown up they go to him.
Interesting the way the bull moose constantly flicks his tongue in and out while the cows gather around him. Is that something he does in anticipation of which cow will choose him?
He's checking via scent glands in the roof of his mouth (Jacobson's organ) to see if any of them are in estrus. HI!!! What fun to see you here!!! 🥰🤩😘😁♥♥
Muito obrigado. Eles são animais únicos, alces. Criaturas estranhas. Enormes, mas também são muito gentis às vezes. A natureza é incrível! Obrigado por assistir!
Omg that robustly powerful male just released a potent scent that drives & quite posessed in those females to mate with him never observed moose behaviors before just amazing😱
Sorry I missed this comment. It's quite the thing to watch the moose rut unfold. This is a small part of it. We've seen it all, and have videoed it too! Lots more on this channel. Thanks for watching.
Great video is it just me but r they so quiet when the rut is on???? I would think such a big animal would make more sounds???? I'm from South Africa so was just wondering????
Grreetings to you in South Africa! Thank you for being here. It is truly amazing that moose do NOT make more vocalizations. They're so huge you'd think they would, right? We have seen several videos and high end productions of wildlife (BBC, etc) who get it all wrong with the moose, they insert these horrible bear sounds. It's comical to those of us who know moose and spend months with them. They grunt and whine but that's about it. Occasionally the cow will make a short bark sound at a calf. We have yet to get that on film. But have certainly heard it a few times. And we haven't seen a documentary that has caught it either. Anyway, great question. And thank you for asking it! Welcome!
Actually what they're competing for is the right to get close to the bull's sexy smelling urine. After a day or two they'll be more interested in the bull.
I think the first bull was probably a senior bull. He had great body size, but his rack was not as big as it has probably been during his lifetime. That other monster bull was in his full prime. Who wouldn't have given up the field?
So the kind of thin bull with the really wide rack is the very senior bull. He is a fighter/warrior and he won this one against an up and coming younger bull whose rack is absolutely crazy fun with stuff going on. But again, the older, wiser bull bested the younger one because he had uphill/high ground advantage. So interesting, because it was really an even match other than that! Thanks for the comment and for watching, Cindy!
Yes, they work very hard to keep them close by until they are truly ready. In the meantime it's a game of sorts. Exhausting for the bulls but really the cows run the show!
Sure thing. I'll explain it briefly. It's mating season and male moose dig a pit in the ground and pee in it. That attracts the females and they want his "perfume". Sometimes other bulls steal the pits while the one who made it is off chasing a smaller male away
He was wise to do so. Fast forward years later and that young bull now rules that territory! Amazing how they learn and grow to dominate. Thanks for watching and commenting!
when you pan to that 2nd moose @2:20 I was ready to see a war, 3 females in heat with 2 nice bucks. That 2nd bull is a studddddd. Your footage is simply amazing
Thanks so much, RB...that bull had stolen the other bull's rut pit and harem. He wisely left upon seeing what was coming for him! Gotta love watching nature play out. We don't call them in, we just let it all unfold organically. We live to see dinner that way!
This is too human-like lol The hotshot bull is flirting with all the cows, and the one cow who is chasing the other girls away is serious in love with the hotshot. Yet, hotshot bull is sniffing on the other cows behind the back of the devoted cow. She chases them away again...as if urging the hotshot to be devoted! Hotshot still plays around, until the BIG SHOT shows up. Hotshot flees, and the devoted cow attempts to cozy up to the Big Shot. Just like in real life, don't waste your time with players, and don't get into petty cat fights over someone who'll flee.
Do you have two types of antlers there too? We have two types in Sweden: the "sticks" and the "showels". It seems to me that the first bull is a "stick" and the second bull is a "showel".
But he did manage to steal the big bull's rut pit for a little while. (:>) He knew when not to fight. He's also the bull in the injured bull video, so he eventually was fighting anything and everyone. Kept on going, too. Men!
@@Zakmani Well, they're girls who are looking for guys, so I guess so. They want the baddest of the bad. In our world that would be the ones with money, in their world it's the strongest and bigger antlers.
It seems unfair that they don't have tails, I know! They get bitten by bugs on their back legs that a tail would help with. But once you realize where they live, you'd also realize a tail wouldn't work in that thick growth and bogs and such. They had probably rotted off and over thousands of years wasted away completely.

Ha! You'd think. Pity it's not that easy...the cows decide! And they haven't made up their minds yet. Those poor bulls just have to keep them close by for when they ARE ready. Thanks for the comment!
That year this bull didn't do much fighting, so I think he was just not as sure as he would become the next year. Then he took on anything that looked at him wrong. He knows the other bull would have his lunch in this video. Smart move.
Yeah? Lucky guy!!These bulls? work awfully hard to get a girl! The girls just tease them and make it LOOK like they're interested. Then pull a nya nya. (Eventually they do come around.) 🙂

Interesting video. Its worth watching what nature has given the big papa moose two beautiful antlers, quite big with 10+ dips. Awesome.
Thank you. Appreciate the comment and glad you are here along with us on this journey! These antlers are very impressive! Much more to come!
I have never seen 5 mooses all together in a single video, 2 males and 3 females. Amazing footage you have captured. Thank you for sharing.
It is rare to see so many moose in one place in New England, but not so uncommon in Alaska, where we filled this. Thanks for watching!

Thanks so much!! Appreciate this awesome comment!!
Just curious why so many dislikes this is Mother Nature at her finest and this incredible person is bringing it to you ❤
Не вижу негатива. Где вы его прочли?
Cow's like "hurry baby". Bull's like "whoa she's into me. I'ma gonna play hard to get". "What! yo daddy's home . I'm outta here." Snooze you loose. 😂.
LOL that hurry baby killed me
In my opinion, this is the species with the most beautiful horns in the world and second only to my neighbor (j4f)
They are very impressive headgear that's for sure! Good thing they don't have to wear them all through the winter. That's unneeded weight to have to pack around! Thanks ATP!

Both bulls are big, but the second was an absolute giant!
It's so interesting that the dominant female kept chasing the other females away from the bull 😆
Yes, she's the one determined to have him as a baby daddy. 😆
She's like - Get back, heifers! He's mine!
The first dude was all that until big papa strolled up.
I think the first bull was probably a senior bull. He had great body size, but his rack was not as big as it has probably been during his lifetime. That other monster bull was in his full prime. Who wouldn't have given up the field?

Well if he truly wants the rut pit to be his and the cows to fall in love with him, he must add his own stink to that pit.
He did. When he peed in it.
