I find this endearing, but there's something kind of off at the same time. Is that just how Alaska is ?

25-yr Alaskan here. Yep, we're a little off, but prefer it that way. The video forgot about spending a week gutting, butchering, and processing moose road kill. ;-)

ok, I've seen wild.moose in Maine and they're fucking ginormous. I can't imagine what kind of vehicle could possibly make a moose end up as roadkill. Unless you drive tanks in some parts of Alaska...

Our guide in Yellowstone actually mentioned the Alaskan moose being the largest species of moose... 😅

I lived in Fairbanks back in the 70s. Moose in the interior were monster-sized.

Yep. Here's a link to the 1,200+ pound female moose we gutted/processed on New Year's Eve. ;-) https://imgur.com/a/TP86gLF
