People think I'm strange because I worry more about moose than bears or 
cats. There's some history there. Camping in a meadow off the trail in NH, 
I'd just gotten up and was cooking breakfast when I heard crashing through 
the woods. The moose walked through the meadow missing my tent by a few 
feet. If he'd been off course he would have plowed through the tent and 
not noticed.

Hiking in VT I saw what I first thought were two horseback riders on a 
cross trail up the slope. It isn't all that common, but people do trail 
ride back east. They turned down the trail I was on and I realized it was 
a pair of moose. I'm not much of a tree climber but the trees were all 4" 
DBH or less. I didn't think a .38 would impress them. They split off on 
either side of the trail and flanked me. I didn't know if they were being 
polite or planning on a pincer attack.

One of my favorite cartoons was in a local ME paper after they opened the 
first moose season in decades. Redneck one was painting a target on a 
complacent moose. Redneck two was sitting in a lawn chair with his rifle 
and a can of beer. 

The season is coming rapidly when the tourons come to Jellystone to pet 
the moose, buffalo, grizzlies, and anything else they can get close to. 
They'd probably try for a selfie with a wolf if they could find one.
