Moose Antler Shed

My friend the antler hog has done it again.  After scouring the forest for an entire day he was able to come up with yet another beauty.  Looks like the first of the moose antlers have been shed and now the hunt begins.  He, along with other antler addicts, will search their secret spots as often as possible in hopes of finding more antlers to add to their expansive collections.  I’m surprised he returned with just one antler since alot of times moose will lose both of their antlers in close proximity to each other at around the same time.  I’m sure the moose appreciate this since one antler can weigh up to 50 pounds and walking around with one antler would cause quite a pain in the neck.   Speaking of sore spots, the antler hog has yet to ask me to accompany him on a search, maybe one of these days…
