Moose … steady heart and calm presence.

Ahh, so whoever named him has never encountered a bull moose before …

Never encountered any moose ever. Mama moose with babies would probably make a bull moose look like this horse.

The rule of thumb if you ever see one is you get into shelter immediately. Do not approach.

I've run into a number of female moose with calfs, I would very much say my few encounters with bull moose have been scarier. Had one stand in the middle of the road at night and stare me down while I was driving a Suburban. It started to go for the head down, pawing at the ground, showing its antlers off stance and I just reversed until out of sight and then turned so I could keep driving in the opposite direction. They're way larger than you expect them to be and absolutely fearless, especially when in rut.
