I agree. As far as I know, they don't drag their food up a tree to eat it... like a leopard does so the lions won't steal it. just wondering what COULD or would drag a moose up a tree???

Can anyone think of a more likely explanation?
Moose was distraught over forlorn relationship, threw a rope over a branch and hung itself?
Herd of moose were playing hide and seek, and Bullwinkle here decides to hide in a tree, but couldn't climb down?
Borris & Natasha did him in, and wanted to make a public display to show Rocky they were serious?
Aliens?

Yep. I was thinking either a big cat, or else humans did it as a prank to make people ask on forum boards how it was done...

Mooses climb trees right before they die, for the increased sense of privacy.

I am glad there are no leopards in Louisiana. But we know Leopards do it out necessity. It would be cool to see a leopard take down a small Zebra. Never seen footage of one taking down a full grown zebra though. I have seen 3 full grown female Lions take down an adult Zebra. Not sure, but I think a Moose weighs more than a Zebra? Anyways, it IS ok to say that we just can't be sure. Cool mystery. The old"Moose in the tree trick".
Yes, Mountain Lions are known to cache full sized deer in trees. Must have been a pretty big cat to drag a Moose though.

Somehow, I initially read this as, 'The old "Moose in the tree kick"'
Taking a kick off this:
...not your typical reason for a bad lie.

I see a little figure 8 loop of rope above a couple of the ribs on the right side of the pic.

A mountain lion could have came across a moose carcass and stashed what was left. That right angle cut on the far right side looks suspicious though. Do people hunt moose around there?

I'm not a scientist, but I did a little time as a docent at Brookfield Zoo. I'm pretty sure a mountain lion would have cached a kill on a limb and not below it. Also the 6-7 large bare dangling rib bones with the moss growing on them don't look right. The shape and length of those bones are funky. It seems to me that rib bones would taper from thick to thin coming off the animals center line and those "bones" are opposite. They are shaped like baseball bats, narrow near the animal's core/center line and getting fatter away from the center line. Also.... heheh… whats with the ankle shaped bend in those bones and what the hell are they attached to?

Sternum was the word I couldn't think of and it looks like, in this elk, there is a similar shape to the ribs as the photo.

Stream is typically 2-3' wide, now about 60' wide and raging! 3 baskets washed downstream were recovered.
