This moose is cassoworried, and very glad that he's on the opposite side of the planet from them. 3:O((>
I'm reminded of the bit in "The Lost Continent" where Death (having been nearly buried under a pile of books for asking about "The dangerous wildlife of XXXX") asks instead for "The non-dangerous..." and a single sheet of paper floats down with "Some of the sheep." written on it.
Sir Terry Pratchett was a genius.

@Cadbury_Moose@wandering.shop @FritzAdalis@infosec.exchange @stib@aus.social @MaddieM4@raphus.social As a born and bred Australian it's hard to describe my attitude to "dangerous" wildlife. It doesn't really affect how I operate in the world except maybe I don't walk through long grass in strappy sandals. Mainly I think I admire their "I'm not taking your sh*t" attitude and also recognise we humans have reduced their range to such an extent that they're often backed into a corner
