ihn tatsaechlich gesehen! Allerdings hat er mir die Breitseite zugewandt und stand im dichten Gehoelz,
da sind meine Aufnahmen nicht so schoen wie dieses Bild eines Gruppenmitglieds.
Weiter unten der Zeitungsbericht, und der Elch hat sogar 30 Sekunden in den Abendnachrichten gehabt!
Bull moose excites residents, amateur photographers

A young bull moose caused quite a stir in the area of Lincoln Avenue and Jordan Road as he searched for new territory.
The moose traveled through gullies and drainage ditches and was southwest of Jordan Road and Lincoln Avenue, in the Stonegate subdivision, for at least one day Oct. 28. The first reports came in to Douglas County authorities on the night of Oct. 25 from residents in Stroh Ranch. The Parker Police Department received calls starting around 7 a.m. Oct. 28 after the moose was seen behind Lil’ Ricci’s Pizza.
The Colorado Division of Parks and Wildlife was on the scene, where Parker residents gathered to catch pictures of the moose. Police warned people to not get too close, as moose are known to charge when they feel threatened, said Sgt. Andy Coleman, spokesman for the Parker Police Department.
The moose rested in brush for more than two hours, and shutterbugs waited in the cold, damp weather to get the perfect shot. That moment came around 2:15 p.m., when the moose stood up and took a drink from a puddle in a creek bed.
Justin Olson, the wildlife officer at the scene, said his first priority was making sure there were no issues when school let out at Pine Grove Elementary on Stonegate Parkway. The moose was three blocks away about an hour before classes were scheduled to be dismissed Oct. 28.
Sightings of moose in populated areas of Douglas County are extremely rare, although a bull moose was sighted near Castle Rock the weekend of Oct. 26. A cow and calf were also reported near Castle Rock within the last month, Olson said. There have been recent reports of a young bull moose wandering Elbert County.
Jennifer Churchill, spokeswoman for Colorado Division of Parks and Wildlife, said there could be more than one moose in the area. The species was reintroduced in the North Park area in the 1970s, and they’re branching out as the population thrives. Wildlife officials planned to let the moose return to better habitat and said tranquilization would be a last resort.
“We see this in young male animals. Once they get kicked out of the family group, they search for new habitat, but they won’t stay where there aren’t any females,” Churchill said.
Olson said he hoped the moose would find his way south along the Cherry Creek corridor or through the Rueter-Hess Reservoir property on the western edge of Parker. Olson, Churchill and Coleman all said they believe this is the first report of a moose in the Parker area.
“We’ve had coyotes, mountain lions, and bears as recently as last year, but never a moose,” Coleman said.
The people who stopped along a recreation trail in Stonegate chatted excitedly as they waited for the moose to become more active. The moose allowed spectators to take photos from a little as 20 feet away, and Olson described it as “very docile.” However, Olson kept a close eye on its behavior to make sure it didn’t display signs of agitation or aggression.
Wildlife officials expected the moose to move on once darkness set in. The crowd of unfamiliar beings might encourage him to seek out less populated areas.
“He’ll figure out that this is not the ideal spot, with people ogling him,” Churchill said.

PARKER, Colo. - State wildlife officers have captured a bull moose that's been sauntering around Parker since Monday, attracting crowds of people who gawked at the majestic creature.
Colorado Parks and Wildlife spokeswoman Jennifer Churchill said wildlife officers tranquilized the moose around 2:30 p.m. Tuesday near the intersection of East Lincoln Avenue and Jordan Road, where the big bull had been hanging out.
"Everything went very smoothly," Churchill said.
The tranquilized moose was loaded into a trailer and officers were going to giving him drugs to wake him up, she added.
She said the moose is a healthy male, who is about 2 years old.
CPW officials will relocate the moose to western Douglas County.
