I wouldn't pick that out of a moose lineup.

It's young or early in the antler season, but the shoulder hump is a give away.
Might be a European Elk though.

No.

Not. A. Moose.

What are it?

Gravdigr 09-10-2017 04:26 PM

The car and the surroundings don't look especially Murkin.

If it were America, I'd guess a smaller elk species, Tule, maybe. Otherwise it looks like the stags of Scotland and/or New Zealand.

Whatever it is, it doesn't jump like Evel Knievel, nor do they fly.

Gravdigr 09-10-2017 04:30 PM

Tule elk don't quite have the antlers that 'regular' elk and red stags have.

And the antlers of moose show obvious palmation very early.

Our Notamoose does have a fairly prominent hump, though, I'll give ya that.

Here's the pictures before and after that one. The poster claims it's a Red Deer.

It's not certain the chick that posted the pictures know for sure what it was but it looks like it could be a humpy Red Deer. But look at the antlers on the Meeses.
