As a person who’s hunted moose every year, I live in Alaska, I can tell you even though a moose is a cow on stilts if those animals don’t want to be seen or found you’ll never see them.
@Toby I'm sorry I think you mistook me for some who care what you think. I'm sharing my experience living in Alaska. If you don't like that I didn't do it “well”, or wasn't the first person to share, that's on you bud.
I would bet on 100 Moose hidden in New Zealand before a Bigfoot hunter who has spent 10 hrs in the woods 50 ft from a road and gets a recording and sees a Bigfoot.
Or "But have you seen what GRIZZLY ist capable of?! They will get you If they want! They are faster runners, swimmers and climbers...just imagine this 600pound creature chasing after you like *Insert Joe Rogan bear noises and growling while imitating a running bear*...that would be freaking terrifying!"
Grew up in fiordland , grandfather was the first to be legally able to take dogs into the national park to track and hunt these moose and after 3 months didn't see a single one but said he seen plenty of signs that they had been in the area
New Zealander here. Both Canadian Moose and Wapiti Deer were released - not 50 years ago - but about 1900 - 120 years ago. They were released into the south west of the South Island , the Fiordland province, which as advertised, is basically an area of sea-fiords, glacial valleys and the mountains between them. The Moose photo, I think dates from the 1930s or 1950s. Feel free to correct me about this.
Y'all never actually have native moose right? Coz like no mammals. Coz I was low-key imagining a moose swimming to NZ from Canada out-stubborning the bloody ocean
As big as they are I've watched a bull Moose take 2-steps into willows and disappear, they blend in that well. Even watching closely with 10/50 binoculars the only thing I saw was when an ear twitched, and for a bit I could make out 1 eyeball. They can be unbelievably elusive.
Yup even though we have pines that we've cut down and thinned on the acres close to our house for fall and fire safety, ive been outside and you HEAR them brushing on trees, stomping around and snapping branches, but you've gotta move slow and look fast to know which way to leave because they throw on Potter's invisibility cloak or something
I ran into this guy in Te Anau, New Zealand who’s famous around town because he allegedly spotted a moose from his helicopter, was in the news and everything. He was convinced, and he had just gotten back from some time working in Canada so he knew exactly what to look for..
As a kiwi, didn't know this. They reckon we've got a big black cat in the south island as well. As long as they send them to the south island it's all good 😂
The last kill was in the 1930's. But from what we know, 10 Moose survived the boat ride. 6 cows and 4 bulls but only 2 were shot and killed in Fiordland. At the other location all the Moose were killed. The thing is, is that the one killed in 1930's is the second or possibly third generation of the moose there. The only live 25 years but they may live a bit longer since they don't have any predators there
I live around the area and rumors have it there is a guy that has a small farm with them and releases them every now and then then goes to the pub to listen to people telling story's about it and everyone thinks the story's are bullshit.
I remember there were these hawaiian birds that went extinct not once but twice, animals know how to hide from humans, if you see one, its because it let you see it.
Forrest Galante is one of the most interesting people on the planet. I love this guy. I'd give it all up to travel with him and search for extinct animals.
He's already been here and hunted the same territory where you might be able to find them. It's in the series "Meat eater" I believe. I think they were hunting our red stags?
I don’t think that’s a picture of the sheds he found. The person who made this video probably typed “antler shed” into google and used the first picture.
there’s also supposedly a panther that lives in the port hills of christchurch in new zealand! tbh i believe it. i’ve been up there in the dark many times since i live close by, felt like i was being watched multiple times.
Another theory going around atm that I hope is true is that Tasmanian tigers aren’t actually extinct. I love them, they look so ancient like a paleo artist had created them.
Likely the most beautifulist of all. New Zealand 🇳🇿 is an amazing country, people included. But, yes AK is more badasser than anywhere. God bless New Zealand
Also having speant a lot of time in africa and supposedly being familiar with the wildlife didnt know why quagga was called so when it is quite literally the noise a zebra makes
"Look at moose goosers ain't they recluse? Up in them woods justa goosin' them moose. Goosin' them big moose. Goosin' them tiny. Goosin' them mooses all in they hiney." - Mason Williams
New Zealand is so weird and fascinating to me. I would of never had thought they had a moose population. I think it’s because of its location that I kinda just imagined it as like Australia, even though I know that’s completely wrong and they’re two different ecosystems. Funny how the brain wants to make up its own conclusions lol 😂
never underestimate nature
ill underestimate nature as much as i want
Never underestimate the Newfie dinosaur the moososaurus rex
@Kevin Gonzalez hahahahahahahahahaha ha hahahahahahahahahaha haahahahah hahahahahahahahahaha hahahahahahahahahaha hahahahahahahahahaha
Want to find a moose in New Zealand? Look first for the flying squirrel, the moose is always nearby.
Heeheeheehee
Rocky and Bullwinkle 😂
That brought back memories :)
Send Boris and Natasha. They will find moose and squirrel.
And if you're looking for flying squirrel, look first for moose. They are always nearby
As a person who’s hunted moose every year, I live in Alaska, I can tell you even though a moose is a cow on stilts if those animals don’t want to be seen or found you’ll never see them.
So the shot ones wanted to be found?
Having lived in Alaska I've learned moose are very smart and good at hiding from hunters when they know they are being hunted.
Some one alright said your regurgitated comment before you and better.
Good job on being a shadow
@Toby I'm sorry I think you mistook me for some who care what you think. I'm sharing my experience living in Alaska. If you don't like that I didn't do it “well”, or wasn't the first person to share, that's on you bud.
@luvan be the hero this guy needs. We love it
@Toby why comment though?
You know Moose, to me it’s one hundred percent a moose
😆
I would bet on 100 Moose hidden in New Zealand before a Bigfoot hunter who has spent 10 hrs in the woods 50 ft from a road and gets a recording and sees a Bigfoot.
Dang, I was convinced it was a narwhal instead!
Moose: "Y'all don't know me!"
Joe Rogan’s go-to response: “Woah.”
That or he exhales heavily for one breath into the mic
Or "But have you seen what GRIZZLY ist capable of?! They will get you If they want! They are faster runners, swimmers and climbers...just imagine this 600pound creature chasing after you like *Insert Joe Rogan bear noises and growling while imitating a running bear*...that would be freaking terrifying!"
My personal favorite is “MMMM”

@Gingi Vitis - you’ll find that 90% of New Zealand’s wild life isn’t native at this point.
@gujwdhufj ijjpo mainly just our birds. The only native mammals are two kinds of bats.
@Charlie - yep. Funny part is the New Zealand government will defend many invasive species too due to hunting and fishing tourists. Quite sad really.
@gujwdhufj ijjpo not true at all, they drop sodium fluoroacetate on everything indiscriminately. There are farms and parks for anglers and hunters.
What episode is this?
Now we need a horror movie about a moose taking revenge on a small new Zealand town for hunting them down.
😂 there's one about sheep. What would you name it
@Dale Otto what’s it called
@Mitchel Kvedar black sheep
Still easier than finding a moose in Red Dead Redemption 2
As a New Zealander, can confirm moose is still here. Ringwraith No.3 in Lord of the Rings was in fact half moose. True story
All they'd need to prove it is an environmental DNA test
As big as they are I've watched a bull Moose take 2-steps into willows and disappear, they blend in that well. Even watching closely with 10/50 binoculars the only thing I saw was when an ear twitched, and for a bit I could make out 1 eyeball. They can be unbelievably elusive.

Emoosive
@Andrew Wendling Nice 😂
Also born in NZ, ive met that old man who's on the moose hunt, im 41 and have heard about this legend for a long time
I ran into this guy in Te Anau, New Zealand who’s famous around town because he allegedly spotted a moose from his helicopter, was in the news and everything. He was convinced, and he had just gotten back from some time working in Canada so he knew exactly what to look for..

Bro it's supposed to be in fiordland, if it is they ain't gonna find it in there
Probably the same big black cat seen in NSW. Probably crosses the Tasman a bit.
the canterbury cat is what you’re thinking of and yes we are still occasionally arguing about weather or not it’s real down here
What the???? Really... Is this true? How does/ did it go it's days lonely
not just just a black cat but a black panther, they are stupid, same people would think that there is a bigfoot roaming around
Moose are super elusive. I come from a lineage of moose hunters. I believe they are still there.
The last recorded kill of a moose in New Zealand was in the early 1900s
The last kill was in the 1930's. But from what we know, 10 Moose survived the boat ride. 6 cows and 4 bulls but only 2 were shot and killed in Fiordland. At the other location all the Moose were killed. The thing is, is that the one killed in 1930's is the second or possibly third generation of the moose there. The only live 25 years but they may live a bit longer since they don't have any predators there
Last photos taken were in 1953 of a cow, bull and calf.
@Sznakey 1952, the year before the photos.
I live around the area and rumors have it there is a guy that has a small farm with them and releases them every now and then then goes to the pub to listen to people telling story's about it and everyone thinks the story's are bullshit.
Imagine it’s just one lonely moose looking for a mate.
In a hunting game I play you can actually find a lost moose in New Zealand. It’s a very cool feuture
Is that one picture a Siamese moose? That must be really rare. As stubborn as they are how does he get anywhere?
It’s fake
@Adrizellol.
Its called photoshop
And people don't think the human hybrid Sasquatch can stay illusive for all these years
They should add more moose and other animals to new Zealand
You can never kill Canadian calvary 🇨🇦 lmao 🤣
Lmao!
❤🤍❤️
Nature always finds a way 🦕
He was one of Joe best guests yet. Super in tune and respectful of the world and spirits around them.
whats his name?
Forrest galante
There's just one legendary animal for you, always has been always will be
He's the greatest guest on jre. Nice to not hear about politics once in a while
Never heard someone using the plural of Moose that confidently
I remember there were these hawaiian birds that went extinct not once but twice, animals know how to hide from humans, if you see one, its because it let you see it.
The moose were released in Fiordland, terrain like the Norwegian fiords but with thick forest.
“They must not have grizzly bears there, you know grizzly bears hunt moose right”
-Joe probably
"He's found antler shed..."
Shows deer antlers.
Love the Whitetail sheds. How long does it take a deer to turn into a moose?
The person who uploaded the short added that, not the people who made the podcast lol
Well that depends, if the deer was born a moose, once it was born, if it was born some other kind of deer, never
I love how they show a megaloceros in the first few seconds. An animal that is not a moose.
Forrest Galante is one of the most interesting people on the planet. I love this guy. I'd give it all up to travel with him and search for extinct animals.
Sounds like me trying to find a perfect moose in rdr2
Joe said I'm going hunting in new Zealand lol
He's already been here and hunted the same territory where you might be able to find them. It's in the series "Meat eater" I believe. I think they were hunting our red stags?
Probably true, my country is very secretive when it comes to rare things, we tend to keep them to ourselves
My country New Zealand, I love it.
Not just moose, any creature that lives in the wild will blend into their environment pretty well. 😊
That "woeh" at the end made me wheeze lmao
"They found sheds"
*editor shows deer antlers*
Lol
The moose is the new Bigfoot in New Zealand.
Also known as the Eurasian Elk from the genus Alces alces.They are a member of the deer family. Very tasty!
They make good burgers, really juicy if cooked right.
Next step should be to introduce Siberian tiger into Alaska...
And people wonder how the sasquatch can blend in the mountains??
The moose sheds are whitetail sheds. They should tell that guy that’s still searching.
I don’t think that’s a picture of the sheds he found. The person who made this video probably typed “antler shed” into google and used the first picture.
I want to see elite Canadian commandos riding warrior moose.
They are the new National hide-and-seek Champs beating out Bigfoot and Nessie the Loch Ness Monster😂
there’s also supposedly a panther that lives in the port hills of christchurch in new zealand! tbh i believe it. i’ve been up there in the dark many times since i live close by, felt like i was being watched multiple times.
it was probly demons, you need to pray jesus now
@Jesse D i’m not christian if i prayed to my god he’s probably multiply the panthers cuz he’d think it’d be funny
@Crow Dewinter You do black magic ?
That's like the 50 year version of Homer hiding in a bush.
Coming from a New Zealander, it's pronounced 'Meeses'
😂😂😂
Another theory going around atm that I hope is true is that Tasmanian tigers aren’t actually extinct. I love them, they look so ancient like a paleo artist had created them.
Going around? Dude you are like 30 years late to that party
@Tau_Aquilathis dude so late lol i got one in my backyard since 2019
@Niks I'm sure you do bub
@luvan bruh it's been "going around" for 30 years or more
Those moose be living in Middle Earth rn
That "whoa" from joe at the end... encapsulates his entire character.
Yet he dismisses Bigfoot like it’s joke. And yes, moose and Bigfoot are not the same thing.
If that's the photo, the black and white one, it's definitely a moose lol
I hope the moose find each other, and we don’t find them
Me wishing they’d do this with Lynx and Wolves in the UK
Legendary pokemon
Moose is making a return in Eastern Washington State. Around Fish Lake area,but small compared to Montana Moose
Take a look at the antlers on the NZ moose. They look like they have cross bred with the NZ Elk .
No elk in NZ
Lol I've seen big foot photos more clear than that moose lol.
You should always be aware of the ninja moose
The sheds pictured are not moose antlers.
I remember seeing camels in southern Arizona in the 1980s. Locals said the military dumped them off after world War 2
From the African campaign
The US Army released camels in the south west in the 1850's they tried to establish a wild population to use as mounts in the desert.
@RyanGShooter _ now the question is are those camels still around.
@just a guy◕‿◕ I seen some in 1989 in the southwest area of Arizona.
Awesome story!
As stated in Jurassic park: life, finds a way
They took my dried fruit snack when i go to nz. How the hell they manage to snuck in mooses.
I've heard Moa (giant kiwis) still runs around the fiords of the south island.
got to make sure they actually go extinct
Damn I love when my beautiful country is represented.
👏🏻🇺🇸Alaska👍🏻👍🏻
@Shawn Willis is that tour beautiful country/region
Likely the most beautifulist of all. New Zealand 🇳🇿 is an amazing country, people included. But, yes AK is more badasser than anywhere. God bless New Zealand
That's where you can find the rare two-headed moose.
He sounds like a classic surfer whenever he says “whoa”
Gotta talk to my dad about this, we're from the south island and he used to hunt deer etc knowing hime he'll have a story..
they released them in fiordland around Te Anau and Manapouri heaps of hunters talk about it down here in Southland
I truly thought a group of mooses was ‘meese’ (in plural form, not defining it as a singular ‘group’) & not simply ‘moose’ as the word for meese. 😂
This is the same guy that said leopards were bigger than jaguars and he is a biologist lol
Also having speant a lot of time in africa and supposedly being familiar with the wildlife didnt know why quagga was called so when it is quite literally the noise a zebra makes
People have suprising blindspots.
He’s corrected that before
@Dylan Beard if somebody on the internet can point out one mistake than they feel better about themselves
But he is right tho an adult leopard is way larger than juvenile jaguars
a fifty-year-old moose.. wow. that explains him shedding deer antlers
Imagine hearing there’s only 10 moose and the first thing you want to do is eradicate them. People are idiots
The plural form of moose is meese. Your welcome.
Joe Rogan be like: Still it’s not a Grizzly bear
You'll never believe how big they are until you see one with your own eyes they also spend most their time in swamps
"Look at moose goosers ain't they recluse?
Up in them woods justa goosin' them moose.
Goosin' them big moose. Goosin' them tiny.
Goosin' them mooses all in they hiney." - Mason Williams
When Rogan does his aussie surfer impression at the end! 😂
New Zealand is so weird and fascinating to me. I would of never had thought they had a moose population. I think it’s because of its location that I kinda just imagined it as like Australia, even though I know that’s completely wrong and they’re two different ecosystems. Funny how the brain wants to make up its own conclusions lol 😂
If you're going to talk about moose and sheds why do you show me a picture of deer antlers
staged elk antlers
@Slats Grobneck red stug antlers definitely not elk antlers similar they probably are the closes in the deer family when it comes to size and antlers
Is no one talking about the 2 headed moose in the beginning?!
The antler sheds in the photo were of deer, not moose.
There’s a moose loose aboot the hoose
The woods/wild is an healing place most of my healing was done near water
I don’t think I’ve ever heard the words moose and elusive in the same sentence 😂
North America would like its moose’s back
The video game, Hunter Call of the Wild has a New Zealand map and you have to find a moose that is the last of its kind. Probably based of this
Fun Fact: The plural of moose is meese
To increase the moose population of new zealand is bring more moose
Wow I live in NZ never knew about this, im gonna go help that guy.
