"Moose raise a lifetime of research questions," said Lohuis, a former Laramie, Wyo., bear biologist who took over as director of the center in September 2003. "People have spent their entire careers here."

Yup,, and FR has its fair share of these folks too. ;-)

Hmm. This gives me an idea for a study. I've always thought beer came out exactly as it went in minus the hangover. We keep that part. Any volunteers?

Are they kidding? They think a moose in captivity has the same nutritional needs as one in the wild?

I'll never complain about my job again.

At least I don't have to collect and intimately inspect Moose droppings.

Better a moose than a mouse.

Researchers say that's why the state-run center, about 50 miles south of Anchorage, is the global leader in moose investigations.

Where's Monty Python with a skit on "The Ministry of Moose Investigations" when you need them.

It's probably eaiser to find Moose droppings than mouse droppings on the ground.

Perhaps they are potty trained.

Drink beer. Collect the results. Send it to my research org. at the address listed in one of my posts somewhere up there. I'm not sure which one. I'm busy doing research myself!

I'm all over that. Give me a few days; I might have to get a government grant to cover the beer expenses.

A moose tried to steal my son's pizza once. He found out that a quick way to get a moose to remove it's head from your car when it sticks it's head in to steal pizza, is to throw out just the crust.

Squirrels dig in my wife's flower beds. She calls them rat b@$t^r[)s! I've offered to do a little "house cleaning" with the 22 but she's not in favor of that.
