Thanks to all who chimed in so far!

There was another vote for moose in the original thread. I lean towards elk myself, but I am not even close to being an expert.

I should have mentioned that these photos were not taken in a very close proximity to each other; but an area of about 300 meters in diameter. There was definitely more in that area.

I have no idea what happened to that spruce in the fifth photo. It is as if all those branches on the ground were sliced off with a dull knife.

Also, as for the deer going at one tree, I saw with my own eyes a mulie turning a similar bush into almost nonexistence. I caught him in action in the middle and watched him go at it.

From what understand, it is almost impossible to say without seeing more evidence, like tracks, etc. Although it does seem to be pretty low for a moose to me (all are between a foot and two off the ground); but like I said, I am no expert.

I am new to all this and just trying to learn, really. So I appreciate every opinion!
