Alaskan Clydesdale

Thought you all might get a kick out of this...I got this in an email today:

 

 

Alaskan Clydesdale

 

Now here is a real working animal. Only will you find an Alaskan brave enough to give this a try. But in Alaska necessity is the mother of invention.

Take a look!!

 

 

 

 

Look at that set of harness. That must have required the skill of a 'Gifted Harness Maker'.

 

This guy raised an abandoned moose calf with his horses, and believe it or not, he has trained it for lumber removal and other hauling tasks.

 

Given the 2,000 pounds of robust muscle, and the splayed, grippy hooves, he claims it is the best work animal he has.

 

He says the secret to keeping the moose around is a sweet salt lick, although during the rut he disappears for a couple of weeks, but always comes home... impressive!

Awsome! You can't get moose harness right off the rack (pun intended.)

Just when I thought I had seen it all up here! Now I know what to do with all of those wandering moose in my neighborhood...put them to work

That was a funny read and a funnier picture till I started to actually look at it. Nice photoshop.
