    Neat pic. The critters are thirsty. Still a bit of snow on the ground here. No green at all.
    Your camera time is off btw

    Cheers

    We still have snow here. I think the date and time you see is when I posted the pic. Not sure what they were after, but we see animals in this spot frequently.

    Cool pic, but not good to see deer and moose together - bad news for the moose...

    I'm guessing you mean brain worm?

    I suppose I could just Google it, but can you still eat an animal with brain worm? I mean, unless you want to eat the brain I would think it would be alright, right?

    A moose with brain worm can be eaten. Meat is perfectly fine. Most deer in Ontario have the larvae inside them.

    A brain dura of a moose is thin allowing the worm to penetrate the brain. The dura of a deer is thicker, so the worm cannot penetrate into the brain cavity of a deer. Deer are carriers, moose are host to the worm.
