Moose Monday - It is Easy to Participate in the Moose Monday Group - PEACE LOVE MOOSE, America's Moose Wanted and Other Lovely of Moose from Yellowstone National Park

So I did manage to finally see real moose on my latest visit to Yellowstone National Park.  It happened in the very last hour of my visit just before I left the park.

I was pleasantly surprised.  I took the following photos at one of the many souvenir and gift shops, thinking I would not see any real moose.  Here are other kind of moose you may see.  They may not be real but I hope that they at least put a smile on your face.

I could not find a more memorable motto while in Yellowstone National Park then the one on the following magnet!  I guess it was a sign of moose wondeful sighting to come.  :)

I am not sure what the reward on the following America's Moose Wanted was but poor Hatley!  It moose not be pleasant to have his picture displayed like this everywhere (not just in Yellowstone Park!).

If you do not have real moose in your area, there are other kinds of moose you can take photos of to participate at Moose Monday.   I hope the above photos gave you some ideas of how to get your first Moose Monday post if you have contemplated participating but commented you don't have real moose in your area and as a result thought you couldn't.

Thank you for visiting this Moose Monday post.

Have a great beginning to your week!

Rich,

This was moosely focused on moose items.    There were plenty of other items (both moose and non-moose) to chose from at the store.   Thank you for visiting this post.

Hi Gerry - The gift and souvenir shop knows how to source and sell lots of moose concepts. Wow!!!  I think the moose cookies and peppermints were particularly unique.

I recently went on a moose photography expedition in the northeastern USA.  I searched all over the place for moose.  I found a turtle crossing, deer crossings, lots of lobsters and whales, fish, birds, 3 real deer all munching away together beside an interstate's shoulder while driving at 65 mph and more.  However, I did not even see one moose anywhere in any format, not even in the national and state park systems.  How moosesetting!

I always love the way you find the souveniers with moose on them, but when you turn them over, they say, "Made in China."  When I was a kid, they said, "Made in Taiwan."  By the way, do you hang "moosletoe" in the doorways at Christmas?

Hi Gerry, a good assortment of Moose souvenirs here!  Poor Hatley, I wonder what he could have done to be on America's Moose Wanted list ?

Mary,

These were only some of the moose interesting ones I found at the store but there were plenty more.   I am curious to know where did Hatley gets his name and I am also curious to know what landed him on America's Moose Wanted.

Debra,

I wish!   It was a sticker available at the gift shop in Yellowstone.   I only added my name on the photo (bottom left) in colors that blended with the colors on the sticker.  Moose have done too good of a job!  :)
