Has anyone read Bill Bryson's book - Made In America (or something like that) where he mentions the moose as being one of the most, if not THE most stupid creature on earth* (hooves again!!) - an example of their rather dozy nature being that they apparently run towards an approaching car in the hope of escaping it (I can't get hold of a quote from the book right now). I would like to add, however that, since there has been apparently no study of moose phycology it is possible that their dozey nature is due to constant and deep immertion in interlectual and philosophical thought (e.g: hmmm, grass... one of the many roots of all life and matter possibly created by, but not limited to, some type of divine, yet obviously debatable, intervention... " then again, it could just be something like, "hmmm, grass... mmmmmmmm!"
