OK, how can an animal that is so huge be so hard to see?
I finally managed to see a moose during the last 4 days of my thru-hike in 2010, but I had been trying to see one ever since seeing moose turds as early as southern Vermont. And I know a lot of thru-hikers that never got to see one.
How the hell do you hide an animal that big? If they can poop on the trail throughout most of New England, why can't they put in an appearance?
I theorized that moose are multi-dimensional beings that wink into our plane of existence like a quark, pausing just long enough to poop on the trail before projecting back to their alternate universe.
