Many years ago we were hiking in the woods. And then drank coffee while sitting on a rug near the path. Then 3 moose rushed over the path about 5 meter from us and disappeared in the woods at the other side of the path.

It's dangerous when moose cross the road. Here a picture that  I took from the car on the E4. At the right: A moose warning sign and the moos fence.
1980-05-26. I have seen moose on the road. This was on the E4. We were with the car on our way home from Ove's parents. It was early in the evening. Then a moose crossed the road. Fortunately behind our car. The car behind us was fortunately far away from the moose.

It's a bad picture, I had to do a kind of fast shot with my old Pentax camera. At the right you can see the moose coming on the road.
Here you can see the moose at the left, disappearing in the woods. Ove put on his warning light to the car behind us. Very often there can came another moose following the first one.
Some years ago, it was Christmas Eve, we went by car to Ove’s parents. Then we saw these two moose near the road E4

Another year, it was Christmas Eve too, we went by car to Ove’s sister. It was ten o’clock in the morning and we passed a village. Suddenly a moose crossed the road. It came from one of the gardens over the high piles of snow.

Fortunately Ove was driving slowly, because of we were in a village. And Ove could put on the brake in time. The moose was only one meter in front of our car! Ove stopped the car and was waiting because there was another moose following the first one, and even that moose crossed the road in front of our car, and moved to a garden at the other side of the road.
The faeces of moose. I found this in the woods near our home. Picture taken some years ago.

2008-07-18. Moose souvenirs. I bought the tea towel and the dish towel last winter. I bought the magnets and the little moose at the moose farm. Foreign tourists like to buy moose souvenirs. I like to buy these souvenirs too.
