Now this is a skidder!

This is the email I got this morning. Snopes claims its false but they have been known to be wrong a time or two.

Only in Alaska ... This guy raised an abandoned moose calf with his horses, and believe it or not, he has trained it for lumber removal and other hauling tasks. Given the 2,000 pounds of robust muscle, and the splayed, gripping hooves, he claims it is the best work animal he has. He says the secret to keeping the moose around is a sweet salt lick, although, during the rut he disappears for a couple of weeks, but always comes home.... Impressive !!

Bound to be someone out there that will raise some issues with this treatment of a wild animal.
To them I say. "If the Moose keeps coming back, what's the problem?"

its a fake.  photoshopped. look at the log piles. they are mirror images and the edges of the moose indicate it was cropped. and also the ground is covered with tire marks from heavy equipment

This one may be but the pic on Snopes looks pretty real!

That picture looks real to me though.  It is either real or somebody waisted about 8 hrs on photoshop making it look real.
