You figured it out!

[Ursus arctos horribilis]

Moose are a real killer in Alaska. The norm was, driving 60 mph in blowing snow, whoops, a moose, apply brakes hard, front end of vehicle nose dives, scoops moose broadside across the hood, takes out the windshield, disembowels the moose and kills the front seat passengers. Saw way too many such incidents while living there, gory to say the least.

The poor moose. That said, what was the critter doing that far south, in Taxachusetts? Friends in Canada have told me horror stories about moose vs car. Moose, you see, can be about 12 feet tall. When you hit them with a car, you hit their legs. They then topple over, onto the roof of your Toyota.
