I know you are joking but for those non-Canadians who have never encountered a moose on the loose, if you are driving, do not back up, drive forward, honk your horn or blink your headlights. Any of the above will be considered aggressive behavior by the moose and he will charge.

Told to me by my 64 yo Canadian husband.
