Is it really Wednesday already? On my way to a Pilates class, here’s my contribution:
Moose Resting in Tall Grass in Grand Tetons.
He didn’t move all day. He was about ten feet from the trail when we began our hike and four hours later, he was still there. We watched him for a while, admiring his rack (ha ha) and wondered how anyone could kill such a beautiful creature and mount the antlers on a wall for decoration.
It hurt our heart and soul to think that if this lovely animal wandered off the protected lands of Grand Tetons National Park, he’d be slaughtered.
If I was anti-hunting before this trip, I have become (if possible) even more militantly against animal murder.
At the risk of offending anyone, I’d like to suggest that hunters have sociopathic tendencies. That opinion was derived from an animal rights group and it resonates with me.
I guess this wasn’t so wordless after all.

We have a park here in Ontario – Algonquin Park – where there are lots of moose, and lots of bears. The park is massive. You drive through and you have to really watch. People are always stopped taking pictures. They are magnificent and HUGE HUGE creatures. So nice that you got to see one.

Yes, shooting PICTURES is the way to do it. We only saw the bears from far away. That sounds like a cool park.

Yes, it was. How can anyone justify the destruction of beauty? Nature, animal, whatever.
