A momma moose and her 2 babies took up residence in the Audubon Neighborhood around mid October. They wandered around enjoying peoples back yards, tree's etc for like a week. When the decided to visit Audubon Park Fish and Wildlife was called in as they were just too close to a school, people walking their dogs etc and it just wasn't safe for the family or the people any more. Fish and wildlife used dart guns to tranquilize them and loaded them in 2 horse trailers to move to the far side of Mt Spokane. People in the park got to get an upclose and personal look at the three and even help loading them. A team of Veterinarians was on hand to give them shots, check their condition and put tags in the ears of the babies to keep track of them.
Funny, the fish and wildlife guy I spoke to said he had moved this Momma moose to Mt Spokane last year in October and she had come back. They were going to move them to the far side of the mountain this time.
Enjoying the paths, trails, roads and by-ways of the Inland Northwest by foot. Sharing where I've been through pictures and text so you can explore them yourself walking, jogging, bicycling or under whatever foot powered means you enjoy.
