802.0. "Moose In My Front Yard" by PCCAD1::RICHARDJ (Bluegrass,Music Aged to Perfection) Fri Oct 12 1990 10:40

    Well, I came home yesterday and my family was all excited. There was
    a female moose in my front yard. I missed it by 5 minutes. There is a
    bull a cow and a yearling living in the area of Sunset Lake, on the
    Winchendon side. They have been spotted, photographed by many. The
    thing is that they seemed to be getting used to people. My wide said
    that the moose just looked at them and seem to care less. My family
    was safe on the deck which was above the moose. The moose then walked
    down the street like a cow heading back the barn, and out into the 
    woods.

802.11	I've seen the evidence	WMOIS::D_MELANSON		`Thu Oct 18 1990 09:45`	12
	That moose has been in my hunting area. Looking at his rub hurt my neck (7+feet up). I don't think the deer will hang around with those big guys in the area. Unless those does like the big ones.... Ya never know what you will see in the woods anymore. PS: I feel so safe with my bow in case I get attacted by the moose. ;@)
