Today I saw a couple bull moose and though of you. Going off the antlers, which isnt always accurate, I would have guessed them to be about 3 years old, one was a bit bigger so maybe a year older. Just a couple nice meat bulls.
Anyhow, not having ever tried to put any hard numbers to a bull track before, I went over and had a look. From toe to dew claws the tracks were about the same size as my gloves, which measured 9" long and about 4.5" wide. From center to center the side to side offset when the bull was walking slowly was around 12", when they were moving faster this closed up quite a bit. I was surprized at this measurement, as I've seen big deer tracks that had an offset almost that big, and the spread doesnt seem to close up as dramatically at any normal pace.
Anyhow, thought I'd pass those numbers along.
