OK, I’m from the Houston, Texas area and we revel in large things like Monster Cockroaches. We have no concept of whether this is a large or average bull moose. However, if these photos are not ‘shopped then the scale of this animal would indicate it is HUGE!
Here’s the text in the email that was sent to me:
By the length of his beard and the grey legs, I figure he must be over 10 years old. He looks to be well over 8 feet at the top of the shoulder hump, and with his head up the height to the top of his antler must be about 12 feet. This guy is king of the forest, no bear or pack of wolves would dare come after him when he has this rack. Considering that a dirt road can fit 1 1/2 cars across, this fellow is HUGE. THIS IS ONE BIG BOY!
THE PICTURE WASTAKEN IN ELLIOT LAKE (Elliot Lake is near Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan)
Yes it is a regular size dirt road.

That is a real moose, a big one sure, but not a freak of nature by any means. Moose are big animals. I don’t know about you 8 foot at the shoulder estimate, since it is hard to judge scale in this photo, and there are many forest roads out there that are little more than a dirt track, judging by the ruts, this appears to be such a road. With that said it is not unusual for a large Bull Moose to be around 6-7 feet tall at the shoulder.

this mooose is real and i have seen moose this size. it looks atleast 9-11 years old. i dont see why people wouldnt believe it to be real when there have been bigger moose spotted, photographed and shot. ask any hunter wuts up.

there aren’t many moose in MI and I would doubt one of the few would get that big,even though they can be really huge and there would be more of a chance of the giants in higher populations…and yes that picture is obviously faked

Okay for all of those who say this is a real photo look at the sun light around the trees and on the moose. IT IS SOOOOO FAKE!

As a digital artist and someone who works almost everday in Photoshop, and as a photographer with a lot of experience with animals, I am extremely confident in saying that these are real photos and are not faked. The ambient light projected on the animal is accurate and realistic in relationship to the environment. And there are TWO photos – same colorization, and light patterns changing obviously in association with the animals shadow. There are many small details in these photos that would be very difficult to achieve without it being done by someone with very good photo restoration skills. And who would go through that much work to fake a couple pictures of a large moose?
