All good things come in three. Same motif from three angles.

Don’t just take a look, take a good look. Ha de Gött!

Moose

Moose

Not a full grown but still it’s antler has 8 spikes. We’ve met before and closer but then I didn’t manage to get the camera out. This time I finally did but not with the zoom lens on.

The moose (Alces alces) or elk in British English can be found in northern Europe, America and Asia. It’s also referred to as the King of the Forest since the the antle looks like a crown. They are normally not very dangerous but as all wild animals they can be agressive if they feel threatened.

Highest risk for both moose and human is road accidents. It’s one of the highest accident rates in Scandinavia. During 2025 there was 6500 road accidents involving a moose and 75% of them were killed. This is why Volvo has a special crash test for avoiding or hitting a moose.

Hell to the King, ha de Gött!
