This bull moose walked within 6 meters of my recording setup after being bedded down for over an hour. You can hear a post-nap snort, snack, pee break, and eventually him wandering away. You can also hear the sounds of birds, wind, and the river in the background. For the absolute best audio experience, definitely use headphones for this recording!

Recorded using a binaural setup of Audio Technica 4022 omnidirectional microphones and a Sound Devices 722 digital recorder.
