I hear there are a lot of deaths in Alaska from moose going through windshields.

Any time you have a 1300 plus pound animal go
through your windshield you have a problem!
be a cow, a horse, or whatever.
Problem was so prevalent in Hawaii,
(I live on the Big island right next one of the largest cattle ranches in America, Parker ranch), under the law here you are responsible if one of your cattle
gets out and a car hits it!
I have very good fencing. I normally keep one or two head of cattle as pets to keep the grass down.

My friend in Alaska was a photographer for the Anchorage Times in the ‘70s and ‘80s. He was forever shooting accident pics of car vs moose.

The worst was when a very small sports car hit a very large moose broadside. There were decapitations. The car went under and through the moose.

Canadians are warned of the danger on almost every quarter they handle.
