My husband and I were canoeing one summer in Canada's Algonquin Park in one of their remote lakes when it began to thunder. Thought we'd better get off the water and went into an empty campsite. When we finished dragging our canoe and gear onto the site we looked up and noticed three very large moose nibbling away on some low growing foliage. By the time we made up our minds to leave, it began to thunder in earnest and we decided it was safer to camp with the moose. After a little while they moseyed on out of the site and we were free to find cover.
It was only one of the many experiences we had with moose.
Very cool story, Mia. I have never seen one myself. My husband has an acquaintance that lives in the wilderness of Maine... lots of trees and not a lot of people. He told us that if he is working in his yard, a Moose can walk up behind you without you hearing it. According to him, they are very quiet even with those big feet. Pretty amazing... I figured you could hear something that BIG!
