...No, that's a reasonable viewpoint, speaking as someone who grew up in Maine.

There's a bumper sticker you see there from time to time:
BRAKE FOR MOOSE
IT COULD SAVE YOUR LIFE

They're strong, tougher than the car that crashed into them, and will fight if angered.

They may look like giant bulky deer, but it would be a mistake to think they're as skittish.

YEP, as a lifelong Alaskan, this is a healthy opinion to have.

Okay, you've never seen the damage a buck does to a car if it is threatened. Male deer can dent the shit out of your doors and take out bumpers if they ram them.

No, I know what can happen.

Hence why I think moose are terrifying.

terrifying... but tasty?

Wait, you can eat them? How do they taste....now you make me want to try it.

they're... uh. sweeter than beef. I'm honestly not a big fan of beef, but I do like moose. I like the milder flavor. mostly, I remember my mom's moose-meat spaghetti was extraordinary.

I mean, moose-meat spaghetti sauce.

my sister used ground moose-meat to make taco sauce once, but the seasonings drowned it out. such a waste.

Oh man, reminds me of deer meat. Nom. I love putting it in hamburger helper...but a slow roasted deer is fantastic.

it... probably is basically deer meat, thinking on it. They both eat roughly the same things, I think? tender tree bits, twigs in the winter, grass, garden plants fucking cabbage thieves

moose are kinda like... deer's older, hulking cousins or something, right? :|a

I'm unsure but I'm hungry now lol.

maybe there's somewhere you can order some online? worth checking, at least. Google is free! /crashing the heck to bed, sorry I'm so unhelpful....

Naw, it's fine. I just find this awesome. I have more to try on the longish list of things.
