Moose in Naches?
« on: July 02, 2012, 08:50:01 PM »
So I just had a friend call me who says she was camping with her family in Nachese and they saw a moose.. I said Bulls@!t. She said her dad lived in Alaska and knows what a moose looks like.. Anyone confirm this?

A guy from work said the same thing last year.......    :dunno:

A guy I know that lives between Cle Elum and e-Burg just took pics of a cow moose in his neighbors pasture a couple weeks ago.  Said he wasn't going to mention it if he didn't get a pic.   He went home and got his camera in time.     :chuckle:

Lot of elk around there, but the Washington Cascades  seemingly are becoming more habitable to moose.  There are some residents in the Lake Wenatchee-White River-Chiwawa area, as well as Ross lake.  Transients are all over.

So a resounding, maybe

I'd love to see them "translocated" to the Olympic Pen.

Is it that the Cascades are becoming more habitable, or that the traditional moose grounds are becoming less hospitable? I'm sure we will see an increase in transient/dislocated moose (or is it meese  :chuckle:) in the years to come.

They are full of bull crap with no pictures . I can't confirm a moose but I can confirm there is more than 5 wolves on the naches ranger district.
Um........how about some pictures. :rolleyes:
