It's definitely no joke! When I hiked half the Appalachian Trail and eventually made it to Maine, a shuttle driver that came out to pick us up from a nearby hostel talked about how he'd lost several friends to car accidents due to moose collisions. He was intensely interested in arriving back at the hostel before dark.

He also had some sort of decoration made out of moose scat decoration hanging from the rearview mirror and was also trying to convince us passengers of the many uses of moose scats - skin remedies, even ingestion. But that's another story!
