Capturing a moose shedding its antlers is like “winning the lottery when it comes to wildlife photography," Derek Burgoyne said. He captured the moment in a forest near Juniper, N.B., using his drone. Moose antlers are usually shed in the bush after mating season, according to New Brunswick biologist Dwayne Sabine. He said the moose in this video could have just been shaking the snow off his body, and “surprise, surprise, the antlers fell off.” Burgoyne counted 17 points on the antlers and estimated the bull moose was three to four years old.
