It seems as if many of us have our first encounter with certain animals from watching cartoons or movies. The animals make us laugh, make us cry, make us wish they were real.
It wasn't until I got home, that I found out I'd seen my first moose. Moose can be rather aggressive if you catch them on the wrong day or they have a little one with them. I was answering the phone one time at a school and I got a call from a mother, telling me her child would be a bit late to school because the child opened the door and came face to face with a moose. She closed the door, called mom who called the school to excuse her tardy.
Sidenote: Moose droppings are nice and compact. They resemble pecans in the shell. There are several enterprising individuals who collect, process, and then sell moose droppings to people as moose nuggets. They are made into earrings, necklaces, etc and look like nuts.
