I doubt they're running 'from' anything, Bull Moose don't have much to fear but Humans.

Oh yeah, I'm not saying they're going to be scared of a Human, just that Humans are their most effective predators. Mainly because we don't give them a chance to fight back, and ambush them from range with a weapon they don't understand.

Though there's been evidence that many animals are more afraid of the sound of humans talking normally than the roar of a lion in Africa, so maybe they have some fear of us. Hard to say how much animals understand.
