I don't want to resurrect this thread in all its glory (?!) any more than the rest of you, but did any of the other North American subscribers see the footage this week of a mother moose defending her baby moose by stomping a man to death? It was on all the newscasts around Philadelphia, and it certainly defused the Bullwinkle image that I had formerly had of moose. I guess I could now accept the idea of moosehsunchen as being somewhat xenophobic and scary, but I still think that the american elk is more likely to be the pralori model. I have to be chauvanistic in favor of my own continent, don't I?
