Is that a WA bull! It looks huge, could be the positioning of the camera though?

I just got those pics in an email this morning.  I thought they looked photo shopped, but I don't know :dunno:
May I always be the kind of person my dog thinks I am.

I call bs on that. The light and shadows on the road are off. You should see some of his shadow on the trees on the right side of the road too.

What are you calling BS on? That it's not a Washington Moose or that the animal is not really that large?
 I used to measure the bulls we kill but they seem to average nearly the same with not much variation between them so I've quit doing that.
Granted these are Alaska-Yukon Moose from the Seward Peninsula and I suppose the bulls running around your woods are not nearly as large but they are still an enormous animal.
Nose to tail they stretch 10 feet. Hump to front hoof 7 feet. They are a big deer.
Maybe the one pictured is not in your state but I don't see what is wrong with the photo. Looks normal to me.

well there seems to be less sun on trail in 2nd picture then in the 1st one. Plus moose are very big up north my 1st moose I shot in Canada was a 58 in. and made the horse I was riding look small and TeX is a big horse to be able to carry my fat ass around all day.

Yeah the shadows don't really look right, but the haze in the first one is consistent with the rest of the photo.  I think it is a nice bull walking down a hiking trail and not a road.

didn't even read the thread and immediately said "photoshop" when I saw the pics.  Nice bull in any case!

Shadows are way off or non existant, its got to be fake. Nice bull non the less.
The things that come to those who wait, may be the things left by those who got there first!
