My immy moose ( approx 370lbs on the hook ) does not do it justice!

I guess you asked for them.
Does a 3 pound smallest subspecies of cackling goose count? Just cute little buggers arent they.

Not a big one, but still a big animal.

This moose was 57" across

And this one was 60" across

Ive shot many moose, few elk and 2 bison! Oddly enough a moose wins for the heaviest poundage at 550lb quartered on the hook!

I'd have to guess my Island Elk was probably bigger than any moose I've taken.

Big moose are big, but big buffalo are just plain freakin huge. Couldn't even push it over with 2 people to start caping it, I had to tie my sled to hit and hit it full bore with 10 feet of slack with climbing rope to accomplish the feat!

Moose - one year up towards Vanderhoof. Not big, but the best tasting moose I have ever taken.
Also a Mr. Dean sized squirrel. Only come across those buggers once in a lifetime. I was lucky to survive that one!

This is my biggest big game animal. First elk I have ever shot. Not one since either, I think it was too big for my first so now I am jinxed.

Rack wise it would have to be the moose I got in Atlin in 2001. 40in spread
http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c247/cavemn94/scan0002.jpg
Weight wise, it would have to be my 2007 Bison. 575lbs boned out of the butchers

my buds dad's moose last year a few hours from PG. ham boned out at the hip joint and knee joint was 175lbs no kidding (58" rack). guy at the butcher said the biggest ham he ever saw. i believed him especially after having to carry it without a pack back to the boat only 300 yards.
also, 2 northern ontario moose, one rear quarter took 4 of us to lift it (56" rack) and the other moose rear quarter which my dad and i couldn't lift (60"). used the truck to hoist the quarters up for hanging in the garage.
Moosie with a .308 Norma Magnum.
In the excitement I didn't even notice the recoil:shock:!

It is the biggest thing I have ever taken, on a "pound for pound" basis anyway. :)
I think its still up on that sheep thread, no?

Definitely NOT. But I have to say, whoever photoshopped that one...I like the way they think. :D

What the heck, I'll play for real....
I haven't killed too many really impressive animals, but here are my biggest....
This one proves that I do have horseshoes up my butt, and is the one BCRams was talking about above:
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v230/Staggerino/1999_Sheep.jpg
This is my best elk so far....just an average bull:
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v230/Staggerino/Chriselk2.jpg
I hesitate to show these, lest some might think I am showing off or something, but in the spirit of sharing...this is the biggest animal on the hoof I've ever killed (obviously not from BC though), a 2200 lb (weighed) eland...
http://www.accuratereloading.com/cd022.jpg
And this cape buffalo was almost as big (maybe 1800 lbs??):
