    Fun fact: If a male moose is chasing you, don't make the mistake of assuming it can't get its antlers between trees. They can and will tilt their heads, at speed, to weave through trees as long as their body can fit between them. Moose are basically about as dangerous as bears, when they want to be. That said, if you're in the right places in Alaska, you'll find them wandering around your neighborhood, and they don't often cause a ton of trouble. We had a female moose who gave birth in our back yard every year, when I was still up there. The trick is just to not approach them, or go outside at the same time as them being around. Also... An SUV won't protect you from a moose collision. All it does is take their legs out from under them and send their giant body through your windshield (and you). Get a smaller car, and they'll sail right over you instead. EDIT: After some discussion in the comments, it appears that I do not know what I'm talking about with moose and SUVs specifically, so the last "fact" may not be very accurate. My apologies! This concludes Woodledude's Fun Moose Facts.

    @@lennychorn147 Eh. I guess it really depends on the speed? I think we agree you don't want to hit a moose, and the safety statistics for SUVs speak for themselves - They are a needlessly dangerous element on the roads (to other drivers and their own), and impractical in all their purported functions besides. But yes, a moose falling on the roof of a car would probably be bad. Much like a sack of bricks doing the same. From my understanding, at highway speeds that doesn't tend to happen, which is where a moose collision is most likely (because the driver is going too fast to stop effectively).

    @@Woodledude Pal, you obviously have a major bias against SUVs. I am a 39 year veteran otr truck driver. I can tell you that you're clueless. In moose county, SUVs and pick up trucks are more prevalent in the rural settings where most deadly collisions occure. You're still more likely to survive a collision with a large animal, in an SUV than in a automobile. In my actual experience of seeing the aftermath of a vehicle versus any size of deer, from white tail to Canadian Moose. 9 out 10 animal collisions that results in the disablmeant or destruction of the vehicle, are cars, not SUVs. And cars are always more severely damaged. Most vehicles that are considered an SUV, are similar in size to what the average car used to be.

    @@lennychorn147 Ah - You're correct, I am quite biased against SUVs. And you do probably have much more data than I do as far as SUV usage and safety in rural environments. I would be inclined to trust your judgement in that regard. My bias comes from the prevalence of SUVs in more urban areas, with far fewer large animals and far more cars and pedestrians. In these environments, SUVs are not only pointless, they are actively more dangerous than cars, which are already incredibly dangerous in the hands of an untrained driver - Which again, are far too prevalent because of rampant car dependent design in cities. This has clearly colored my perception of SUVs in rural environments, but I seem to have forgotten that the SUV was, in fact, designed for such environments, and the main problem with them is simply their urban misuse, not strictly their existence. Thank you for correcting me and providing your experience, wisdom, and time.

    @@Woodledude Thanks for being so responsible. I am curious though, why you think that SUVs are so dangerous in urban environments and why you think they don't serve a purpose for urban use? I own both a standard sized car and an SUV. I can say just going to do the grocery shopping. I need the extra room of the SUV, otherwise I would either need to make weekly trips, or try and stuff everything in and still not have enough room. A trip to the park with just one set of grandkids, wouldn't be possible in the average car. Not to mention that in winter weather an SUV is a better option, even if it is only two wheel drive.

    Here in Maine, moose have kld more people than our black bears. They're extremely unpredictable & moody. If you encounter one while hiking, stay back and give it plenty of room to pass. They can go from 0-30 in seconds, and a kick in the head by their powerful legs is deadly. Never run or you may trigger a chase. Our Dad used to tell us to be ready to climb up a tree. It's your only hope if you encounter one during the rut, when they're angry and mean as hell.

My dog was acting crazy--I finally put him in the car, where he was throwing his body against the car door window. I finally got in to calm him down and that gigantic wild male moose crashed thru the trees and bushes. There was a perfect, empty, wide path right next to where the moose had created its own path. No one would have guessed... That dog was my soulmate, saved my life twice.

He went, "This is what we do with mice in Texas!" and pulled into the passing lane, speeding up and blaring his horn. The moose, well, took that as a challenge. The moose lowered its horns, and locked with the semi. Later, the trucker called his boss, and explained that the engine had ended up falling out, causing the trailer to break down on the road. "Well, at least you're eating good tonight." "Nope. Moose walked off."

The elk (all or mostly all male) arrived and surrounded our cars then began bellowing... We did not dare leave--they were huge and stretching to look even taller to each other. Eventually, they'd take their ego contests far enough away that we humans could run for our cars and scoot out of Dodge. So the number of "hostages" whittled down... It was quite a show!

    I learned an amazing thing about moose last time I was in Jackson Hole--my favorite place on Earth. Moose can stand out there in the snow for what seems like forever without their feet or legs ever getting frostbite. That is because their body fat never becomes the solid white lard we see in cattle (beef)--and in humans, if you were to see your insides. Their fat in unsaturated or something, and remains a warm liquid that can easily circulate. Another thing to remember about moose is the sheer power of their bodies and weird antlers. Years ago, I was standing by the back end of my Jeep in a parking area by a bridge/overpass above the river in Jackson Hole. There was a very wide path down to the river, which was blocked off so people could not fall in--the water was too cold to survive. You could walk along the path there by the river, I suppose, but it was early November, cold, not exactly pretty, right before sunset. My Shih Tzu (a tough throwback to a Tibetan Terrier) my super protective dog was barking like crazy--really going ape, and so I'd put him in the car, where he was throwing himself against the windows. I got in the car to calm him down--which it did. A second later, a huge male moose with full antlers came crashing through the plant growth between the bridge turnout and the river--small trees and giant shrubs about 12+ feet tall, so dense I could not see through them. I had not heard a thing until he was standing right where I had been a second earlier. There was the cleared path at least 10 or 15 feet wide, gravel on the ground, and nothing up by the bridge, or in the turnout parking area. No reason I could see to go up there if you are a moose. And if you insisted, you could walk up the path with no resistance. It was freezing and windy, no people but us. Yet that giant moose came crashing through the trees and brush, so densely thick it was quite a job, even for a moose. His antlers sort of cut through the branches, breaking through each and every one. It took a tall, massive creature with huge flat antlers to bust through. I say this because, should anyone visit a place with huge animals such as moose (and elk, bison--and I imagine elephants?--who are equally unpredictable, violent, impulsive--they rule their worlds, all animal testosterone)...don't stand around where you cannot see all around you without obstruction. And don't think that because a barrier is indestructible to us, it will be indestructible to them! They care nothing for damage to plants, trees...if they can destroy it, they just may choose to do so! I saw no animals. But my dog heard him, and perhaps he heard my dog (18-20 pounds, a bigger shih tzu, not happy, but uncharacteristically freaked out) and wanted to silence him? Could this moose have felt territorial there? Who knows. But it taught me never to impute human motives, human concerns into a wild animal. This huge creature towered over our Cherokee (even more than the rutting elk and running bison on the road in Yellowstone had, tho the bison would have destroyed the front end of our car had we collided. I would have been severely injured had I not stepped the 5-6' to the car and got inside. There is no explanation--just as when you see tourists in Africa encountering elephants on the roads...it's their world, stay back, stay safe, and do not trust that a giant animal who rules his road won't destroy an entire hillside to make his own path to the bridge. Their logic is unknowable, unpredictable. I've seen the females off across the meadows, just calmly eating for hours., they have never expressed the slightest interest in us. Males--do they mate in November?--apparently are not just more aggressive but absolutely wildly so. I once walked right up to a herd (?a whole lot of male moose) in a pasture-type meadow at the West Yellowstone entrance--I had never seen them b4, and wanted to take closer photos. I walked my sideways walk that fooled animals all my life and got within about 10 feet. Then, I just walked away back to the road. They watched me but continued munching. Later I learned how dumb and dangerous that had been. And one tore up a hillside to get that close to me. The ones we see that look kind of gentle, sauntering around as one did in Northern Exposure's credits (my dogs favorite thing to watch on TV besides the rodeo), are very old, perhaps sick acc to family who live where they do, usually female, not male, not antlered, not thinking of mating... Just a warning of how unpredictable and how suddenly (and silently until the last second) one might be in your face! (Sorry about the length.)

    Good of you to stop the car. Cause I think you can stress the moose if you try drive past it. I also have seen a video where someone try that and that car gets attacked by the moose. So safest thing is to stop and enjoy looking at the moose as long as he's in sight. 🙂

It looked like a thousand gallon balloon was dropped from 200 feet and landed on the freeway. The moose was flat, it's rib cage was open like a birds wings and its neck was touching its back. All of its legs had compound fractures.The front of the semi was totaled. It's definitely something you don't want your kids to ever see unless you wanna pay for psychiatrists the rest of their lives. LoL

    While visiting my daughter and family in Anchorage, I went for a walk one morning. After about a black, I rounded a corner the other side of their block and there was a young, female moose, yearling. It was late spring. I walked by where she was munching grass. She was curious and came my direction. She was beautiful and I told her so. She stopped walking, so did I, kept talking to her. She turned and walked away back to eating. It was an exhilarating encounter. She was sweet. I kept walking.

When I was little the moose exhibit was my second favorite, next to the planetarium. The moose was the biggest animal they had. My dad used to put me on his shoulders so I could see the face. I feel sorry for Mr Moose, being stuffed like that, but I'm glad I at least got to see one.

    When I lived in Montana my friends and I used to go to this natural hot springs way out in the woods. One time we were out there in the biggest pool, and you couldn't really see the surroundings all that well when you were down in the water. I stood up to grab my drink and about 20 feet away there was a bull moose just calmly grazing. It was incredible! They're magnificent creatures! You see elk and deer all the time in that part of the state-well, in most parts of the state-but seeing moose is not nearly as common. Another time my mom and I were driving home from my grandparents' ranch on a winding country highway. We came around a corner and suddenly there was a HUGE cow moose in the road about 75 feet ahead. We were able to stop in time, thank God, and then her calf came following along behind her. Growing up in Montana had a lot of drawbacks for me, but I'll always be super grateful for all the wildlife I got to see!

    Moose are more clumsy moving to the right, for some reason. If being chased by a bull moose in a wooded area, you can buy a little time by circling a tree to the right (clockwise motion). A friend of mine was riding his Goldwing motorcycle in Canada. He rounded a corner & on the straightaway was a huge moose, blocking both lanes with its hulking body. There was not enough time to brake, & nowhere to veer off. He drove that fully dressed Goldwing, complete with windshield, right under its belly! Neither were harmed & the moose never budged!

    I was very fortunate to see moose up close and personal when I went to visit family in Alaska. I didn't think that they'd be silent as they walk through the forest! I just held my ground and made no threatening moves or noises. They realized that I was neither threat nor food, and they walked on by peacefully. They were 2 females. It was a rare site, because as you said, they are solitary creatures. They are magnificent and beautiful!

    Remember folks: If you're driving down the road and a deer jumps out. You're better off hitting the deer. If you're driving down the highway and a moose pops out, you're better off going into the ditch. That moose is significantly more likely to kill you with it's size, than a deer.

    Important fact: Hitting a moose with a car is comparable to hitting a brick wall

    it's the running on water that impressed me the most.

    "But the male will leave her soon after mating, and will not help to raise the calves." Damn, thought I was a human. But all this time I've been a moose.
