Lucky nobody was hurt. Getting towards the time of year when they become mean spirited during the fall rut. My family had a camp in Maine and I used to fish the lake in my canoe. Some of the best smallmouth bass came out of the mouth of the river that fed the lake. I paddled up into the river one fall day only to come face to face with a big bull moose like that one pictured. He was feeding on the blueberries growing at the waters edge. I back paddled a fast as I could when he started snorting at me. Chased me right out into the lake swimming after me. Scared the bejeezus out of me. I think I was only 12-13 yrs old at the time. :o
