Älg and Elk are really quite similar words. Ä and E are very close in swedish.

And 120 years ago Älg would have been written Elg [1].

Elk meant moose until English speakers came to north America and started calling wapitis for elk. A lot of animals in areas that was colonized are named like that.

I can't help but feel they may have missed the bulk of them.
It's been a very early spring this year, we've been seeing weather that's probably 4-6 weeks ahead of the normal curve since March.

This is pretty huge in Sweden. Slow TV at its finest :)

This triggered a freeze with subsequent shutdown of my Lenovo X1 running Ubuntu.

There's a counter on the screen (I see it at 34) for the number of moose having been seen to cross the river this season.

Swedish tradition to watch in the background
The interesting thing about “Algvandringen” is that you can hear “Elk wandering” in it, showing the evolutionary similarities of two Germanic languages.
